They are? is there a model that moor's them next to a dock to visually see?

It would be cool if you had to maneuver your boat next to a tender, cast in lines and begin refueling/reloading efforts; with minor repairs given (like fixing broke diesel engines ).

I was a TM and weapon loading and being a topside/line handler were a few of my primary duties. I loved it; especially when we were pulling in and out of port. I was the last one in the boat before going out to sea, and the first one topside before we pulled into port. I can still smell the salt.
