Some of the biggest ships in the world are over 1,000 ft long, and have a 80-90 ft draft.
There are only a few ports in the world that are even deep enough for these ships.
So how do they dry dock a ship this big to paint the bottom?
I guess where they built it, would be the best spot to go to dry dock it.
you think they bottom paint them 3very 5 years? every 10?
I heard the navy has a super special bottom paint that will last 10 years, but they are the only ones who can use it.
