Dry docking is a critical part of keeping commercial vessels safe and seaworthy. By lifting ships out of the water, crews can inspect and repair hulls, propellers, and rudders, as well as remove marine growth that impacts fuel efficiency. While essential, dry docking also presents serious risks: falls, crush injuries, and exposure to hazardous materials are all too common if safety rules aren’t followed. That’s why OSHA guidelines and proper protective equipment are vital in preventing accidents.
