Ferry

...se trata de un ferry muy rudimentario , a veces son como dos canoas juntas en forma de balsa, otras veces como un bote .
Se debe comprender que se utiliza como ferry ya que tiene los viajes programados para transportar personas, agua, etc.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you. There are several people who noted that planchón is a ferry or barge in Colombia. In this particular case, however, there was no waterway, and it ended up being a kind of truck."
