Even in the midst of a recession in the shipbuilding industry, ship repair yards that completely repair existing ships and make them look like new are booming. In Saha-gu, Busan, there is a large repair shipyard equipped with a facility called a “floating dock.” The morning at the ship repair shipyard begins with lifting the ship onto the floating dock. Workers connect eight ropes to the front and back of the ship and lift it onto the supports that have been set up in advance according to the drawings. Two divers go underwater to check if the ship is properly seated on the supports. Contrary to the veteran diver’s boast that it will be over in an hour, shouts begin to be heard throughout the dock. The bottom of the modified ship was not reflected in the drawings, resulting in a 30cm gap between the supports and the ship. After a brief moment of confusion, the divers fill in the gap between the ship and the supports for four hours by inserting a plank of wood. After many twists and turns, the most difficult task of placing the ship in the dock is complete. But the work is just beginning. Within the remaining two weeks, you have to complete over 60 repairs, including washing off the rusted parts of the ship, stripping them, and repainting them in a nice color, as well as repairing the engine and propeller. The process of completing all repairs and inspections within a limited time! Let's visit the transformation site created by ship repair shipyard workers. #Extreme job #Ship repair #Shipyard #Floating dock #Gamcheon Port #Repair #Technician #Documentary #Ocean fishing boat
