On the Bohnenburg side of the Old Harbor is the old, historic Hooksiel mudder boat. It was in use in Hooksiel from 1837 to the 1950s. In earlier times, there was a mudder boat in front of every outer harbor of a sluice. It cleaned the access channel of silt. To do this, the boat went aground at low tide and then large wings were folded out on both sides. The force of the water that was dammed behind the sluice gate pushed the boat towards the sea. In doing so, it cleared the access channel to the harbor.

In the past, the fairways were kept free with the mudder boats
