I think the bunkers were mainly for the repair and rearming of the boats, and with limited space they had to wait their turn. Also, I believe it was the job of the refitting crews to turn the boat around and back it into the pen (as pointed out by Kapt Z).

As to Jaman's comment on ceremony, I agree there also. Remember that the raid starts just as an actor playing "Onkel Karl" himself is about to board the boat.
