By building a new breakwater and extending the slipways, we will improve ferry resilience and lessen the impact of poor weather conditions. |
Qora, Ndumbi and Kob Inn all have gravel roads leading to concrete slipways at the water, yet they are forced to apply for a licence. |
I don't know if they have reserved occupations over there but I can see them in my head, sitting by the slipways drinking their ersatz coffee. |
Another two ships were dry-docked at the end of slipways while a few cold-looking workers labored at scraping down the hulls. |
Extending the pier, providing extra slipways and an off-shore marina acceptable to residents, are all part of ambitious plans submitted for funding. |
These features are as just as diagnostic as slipways, docks, capstans, roperies, smithies or other such structural evidence. |
