Or do big engine repairs on big ships. What happens when the engine has massive problems and you built the entire shop around th engine? Cut a big ole hole in the side.

That makes every cutting and welding job I'll do for the next 50 yrs look like a drop in the bucket.

Always wondered why people pay money to get packed into a clothes closet and bounce across the ocean while they catch some virus.

What’s that large slot cut in the hull in the stern section just aft of the joined area. What’s that white insert attached there too? Some sort of antiroll wing?

Retractable Stabilizers. They are deployed while underway for a smoother ride, retracted when docked for clearance issues.
