A Higgins Boat loads and unloads a tractor, in tests on the shore of Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana.

In different sequence, the empty boat comes to the shore and lowers its bow door ramp. The tractor arrives and backs onto the boat. A photographer takes closeup pictures during this process, With the tractor on board, the boat raises and closes its bow ramp door, and proceeds away carrying the tractor. The process is repeated.
