Thank you for your reply npertesis, but it seem a lot of effort in construction to enable access to the bottom of the dock when there is access in the side walls ? Bulbous bows phantom53 ?, seems a more logical explanation !

Cheers, Dan.

What appears to be a "cut" is actually a long staircase leading to the bottom of the (so called) drydock. The only other access to the bottom of the drydock is via two more staircase carved on the drydock side walls

person

I suppose it is for larger ships with longer bulbous bows.
That is my thoughts

person

An interesting design of dry dock, what is the purpose of the 'cut' in the foreground of the photograph ?

Cheers, Dan.
