There is no set schedule, and it depends entirely on the ship type, mission, and needs of the Navy. Your normal schedule could have you supposedly in-port for another month for refit/repair/maintenance, only to have a hurricane force you to emergency sortie (get underway immediately) and head to sea. There could also be a crisis situation somewhere in the world and your ship is the one that happens to be qualified or needed there.
The only 100% positive guarantee that your ship won't be getting underway and you'll be on an extended in-port stay is if it's sitting in a drydock for overhaul and most of its major systems are removed. Even in a floating dock, unless there's extensive damage and there's no regular drydock available, there's no guarantee in an emergency you won't have to get underway as fast as necessary.

What did Secretary of the Confederate Navy Stephen R Mallory propose as a naval strategy for the South?
Secretary Mallory' s naval strategy recognized the weak position the Confederate Navy was in. He therefore sought the use of new technologies to overcome the Confederacy's problems. As soon as the Confederate Congress allocated funds for a navy in 1861, Mallory began to purchase suitable ships from wherever they were available. This did not provide much help and Mallory believed it would be possible to build ships in Confederate yards. Mallory's innovations proposed building a new type of warship. They would be fast, steam powered raiding vessels with rifled canons. Two of the ships he was able to buy were the steam powered Sumter and McRae. Mallory believed that fast & light cruisers could be used to harass the Union's sea commerce and force the Union's naval power to pursue these ships and therefore hinder their blockading efforts. He sent former US Naval Officer James D. Bulloch to Europe and buy or have built six propeller driven ships, powered by both steam & wind, with high levels of endurance. Speed was more important than canon. As for the endurance factor, he believed that these small, quick vessels should be able to stay at sea for six months. Mallory's approach actually was a portend for for submarine commerce warfare that was part of World War 1 submarine operations.
