The vessel was laid ashore, preferably on a steeply slooping beach, parallel to the shore-line and hove down by means of tackles attached to the mast-heads. Relieving tackles, running under the ship's keel, were secured to convenient points on the exposed side, so that the angle of heel could be controlled and the vessel brought back to an even keel after the side had been cleaned or the repairs made. After one side had been cleaned, the ship was floated off on the tide, turned round to face the other way, and careened again so that the opposite side could be cleaned. Small craft are still occasionally careened for cleaning on suitable beaches, but the cleaning of larger vessels is always now done in a dry-dock.
