ABSTRACT:
A flexible barge containing fresh water is unloaded on a dry dock which is gradually raised from a submerged condition as the fresh water is pumped out of the barge. The deck of the dry dock is formed with a basin adjacent one end thereof and the dry dock is tilted near the end of the unloading operation so that water will drain in the barge toward the basin and collect in the barge in the basin to be pumped out.
