Floating Dock is a floating dock consisting of a pontoon, pontoon where the water in its tank can be removed and inserted as needed so it can sink or float in water as needed.

The workings of the floating dock is as follows:

 Before sinking the floating dock will be known in advance laden ship that will dock and how many meters up the parts that stand out from the ship. Based on data obtained from the plan dock (dock plan) then the floating dock sunk by the divider valves are opened and water enters into the cavities or pontom tank, so the dock slowly down.Must be maintained so that conditions are even keel. If filled with water above the floating pontoon has been reached laden ships then with the help of tugboats will ship ngedok thrust into the floating dock in the condition of main engine and auxiliary engines should be turned off.

Subsequently held with the ship mooring ropes that serve to limit the room for the ship, making it easier to sit on the prop-prop that had been prepared. Once the ship began to enter into a floating dock and its position to achieve the desired conditions and ready to sit on his position. If you're having trim or rocking the boat, it must be sought to balance it by giving the water back, reduce, add or move it.After the ship's position is stable and proper position in accordance with the desired, then the dock float back slowly and held supervision, custody, and control of the position and the position of the ship. To check whether the ship's position is right after it made provisions to ensure that the dive boat actually sits right on the prop-prop (keel blocks and slide blocks).
