May be i am wrong...but i think so it is normal the ships smokes on docks.
The boilers must to maintained at working pressure, not giving steam to the turbine to move proppeller, but to have electricity and conditioned air in cold weather.
Plus at war, i soupose they must to be "ready to scape" or near to this condition, if they become under attack, they must to be ready to move the ships.......
I am wrong ? :hmm:
Or they are completelly "cold boilers" at docks ?
