Dockyard
A dockyard is a facility where ships are built, repaired, maintained, and stored. It typically includes large workshops, cranes, and dry docks—specialized basins that can be drained to allow access to the hulls of ships. Dockyards are essential for naval and commercial fleets, ensuring ships remain seaworthy and operational. They often serve as hubs for shipbuilding and repair activities, supporting maritime industries and national defense. The environment is highly organized, with skilled workers and advanced equipment dedicated to managing large vessels efficiently and safely.
