dc.description.abstractIn February 1943, a new floating dock, Admiralty Floating Dock No.35 (AFD 35), was ordered in India for service in Trincomalee, Ceylon (Sri Lanka). The dock was intended for the war effort in the Pacific but after the collapse of Japan it was decided to send surplus floating docks to home waters. AFD 35 was to be sent to Malta to replace AFD 8. Floating docks could be built in half the time, and were cheaper. The sections arrived off Grand Harbour on the evening of May 7 and May 8 1947.en_GB
