Abstract

A launching and retrieving facility for handling ships with an open ended, sectionally constructed drydock having one side of removable wingwalls. In an inshore position the drydock is ballasted to rest upon a firm foundation and a track system on the drydock floor aligns with a similar shore-based track system thereby allowing the ship to be rollably or slidably transferred between the drydock and shore. After the ship is transferred to the drydock, the wingwalls are set in place and the drydock deballasted to float off the foundation. The drydock and ship thereon are moved into the launching area where the drydock is ballasted down until the ship is set afloat. Ship retrieval from water to shore is achieved by a reverse procedure.
