Much later in the storyline, [[Mr. Briney]] decides to help with the work on the ferry, and Dock notifies the player when they talk to him.
Dock (called '''Tuga''' in the Chuang Yi translation) was taken hostage by [[Team Magma]] in order to make Captain Stern give information on the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] project. He suffered several injuries from [[Mack]]'s Pokémon.
 
===Quotes===
'''[[Stern's Shipyard]]'''
* Before talking to Captain Stern
: ''"Umm… If this goes here, and that goes over there… Then where does this thing go? And what about that doohickey? Aaargh! I can't make heads or tails of this! Hm? Hi, I'm <sc>Dock</sc>. <sc>[[Captain Stern|Capt. Stern]]</sc> commissioned me to design a ferry. Oh! That there… Are they <sc>{{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Devon Goods}}</sc>? But, hmm… This won't do… <sc>Capt. Stern</sc> went off somewhere. He said he had some work to do. Could I get you to go find <sc>Capt. Stern</sc> and deliver that to him?"''
 
* After talking to Captain Stern
: ''"Shipbuilding is an art. A lot of things can't be figured out just by calculating. I really could use advice from a veteran who knows the seas…"''
