Ship repair and maintenance providers carry out afloat repair work on a vessel's hull, machinery, and outfit while she remains alongside a berth or at anchorage, rather than in a drydock. Typical work covers steel repairs and plating renewal above the waterline, machinery running repairs, pipework and valve replacement, and general fabrication and fitting work carried out by a repair yard's own workforce or contracted trades.
This is repair work performed without lifting the vessel out of the water, distinct from the drydock and shipyard facilities used for hull survey below the waterline and major structural or coating work, and from the travelling riding squads who carry out similar repairs while the ship is trading between ports. Buyers commission afloat repair for defects and running maintenance that do not require drydocking, choosing yards on trade availability, workshop capability, and how quickly a repair team can start work alongside. It sits within the Repair, Maintenance & Shipyards category group on PortProcure.

What repairs can be done afloat versus in dry-dock?+
Afloat repair covers work that doesn't need the vessel lifted out — steel and plating renewal above the waterline, machinery running repairs, pipework and valve replacement, and general fabrication. Hull work below the waterline, tailshaft withdrawal, and full-hull blasting need a dry-dock. Buyers commission afloat repair for defects and maintenance that can be done at the berth to avoid docking.
How does a repair yard differ from a riding squad?+
A ship-repair provider brings its workforce to the vessel while she is alongside or at anchor, so the ship is stopped for the work. A riding squad instead travels with the ship and carries out similar repairs while she is trading between ports. Buyers choose afloat repair when the vessel is in port and a riding team when the work can proceed underway.
What do buyers look for when choosing an afloat repair provider?+
Because afloat repair is often triggered by a defect that must be cleared before sailing, buyers weigh how quickly a repair team can start alongside, the yard's workshop and fabrication capability, and whether it is available in the vessel's current trade. Turnaround against the port stay usually matters as much as the quoted rate.
