As to the floating dry docks... In reality they have between 6 and 12 independant ballast tanks per side, and the dock itself is usually light enough to float with 2/3 of the tanks out of play. If there is a ship on dock however, it might be a bit more fun :p

The two drydocks represent the standard drydock and then the same one flooded. Why they have different renown values is beyond me.

That was intended to reflect the difference in tonnage.

So that's why SH3's Long & Lat are wrong.
Thanks for the link, and info. Mystery solved.
