Ah, it's amazing how many words get lost in translation. A dock in the US is what we over here in Britain will call a jetty. A dock in Britain is like a quay or wharf... but bigger :-) I've also noticed we've also had a confusion earlier on between the county of Norfolk in England and the place of Norfolk in Virginia Cheers!
