a general term for a crane used on a waterfront, shipyard, dock structure for loading, building or repairing ships and boats. It is not a specific type like say, Hammerhead, Hammerheads were used on docks not so much now but in active building yards- yes.
use a crane at a dock
For some tanks, they could be driven onto the flatcar from a ramp or off the dock and then turned into position. However, typically they were lifted up with a crane.
This appears to be a normal docking area for large boats that cannot be hoisted by crane out of the water. Once a boat has pulled in, and is shored up underneath, to be drained of all the water, thus leaving the boat in "dry dock" for repairs. When repairs are completed, the area is filled up with water and the boat is able to float again.
Harbor cranes operate by using a combination of pulleys, cables, and hydraulic systems to lift and move heavy cargo containers and other loads. The crane's arm, or boom, can extend and retract, allowing it to reach different positions over the dock or vessel. Operators control the crane from a cab, using levers and controls to maneuver the load with precision. The crane's stability is ensured by a strong base and counterweights, which balance the weight of the lifted cargo.
