The tidal range of the Avon would cause ships that were anchored in the harbour to rest on the river bed when the water ran back toward the sea and in turn cause damage to the timber. This resulted in improved shipbuilding in Bristol, with builders using top quality materials, special techniques and sturdy craftsmanship that they became famous for. One of Bristol's most famous sons, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, played a major role in solving the tidal problem by helping with the designing and constructions of the floating harbour system, which locks water in the central harbour and allowed ships to stay afloat at all times. This system is still in use today.
