A Giereilfähre (also called Gierfähre, Gierponte or Flying Bridge) is a type of ferry that uses the current of the river to be crossed to move.
The technique of the yaw ferry (yaw in the sense of a turning movement around the vertical axis of the ship) was invented by the Dutchman Hendrick Heuck from Nijmegen in 1657 to facilitate traffic across the wide Waal

Nice view of the Ottensheim ferry. Translating is worth it.
