Very rare. During the reign of Ferdinand II, the Castellammare di Stabia shipyard and the Naples Arsenal were renovated and expanded. In 1843, a technical commission led by the naval engineer Colonel Raffaele De Luca visited the most modern European arsenals to learn advanced shipbuilding and maintenance techniques. There was an urgent need to create dry docks for maintenance without damaging the ships.Thanks to the efforts of Major Domenico Cervati of the Genio Idraulico, a project for a floating dock was submitted in 1846, later replaced by a project for a permanent masonry dock in the military port of Naples, today's Molo San Vincenzo. The King approved the project and work began in April 1850. Although a storm in September of that year caused serious damage, work continued with the construction of an embankment and the salvage of the caisson, which was completed in 1851. The dock was inaugurated on 5th August 1852 at a cost of 300,000 ducats and the employment of 1,600 people. diameter 5.3 cm.
