We needed to re-stuff the stuffing box (it wraps around the prop shaft where it enters the boat hull, and the packing keeps the water out), so we put the boat on a tidal grid in Ladysmith. A tidal grid is basically a set of horizontal pilings near a dock. You sail on at high tide, tie the boat to the dock, and wait for the tide to go out. It's a bit trickier than that, but not much.
