The Shaft – Floating Dock
Emerging from the calm waters of Elzano, the Shaft is a remarkable floating dock, designed to service both naval and civilian vessels. Its elongated, slightly tapered form allows ten ships to be moored on either side, with the rounded base providing sturdy anchoring for the heavier military operations while the broader upper surface remains accessible for public use. Its unusual profile is a striking feature in the harbour, admired for its clever design and balanced proportions rather than aesthetics alone.
Constructed of resilient timber reinforced with iron brackets, the Shaft is built to withstand heavy use and shifting tides. Its structure provides ample space for repairs, loading, and temporary mooring, while maintaining an open layout that accommodates simultaneous naval activity and civilian passage. Anchored firmly yet floating, the dock blends utility and ingenuity, standing as a testament to Portavas’ mastery of maritime engineering.
