Dock (or long house) is an induction coil.

Unlike house, dock can function as an eater for individual gliders, using the pre-block tipped ends similarly to that of the original fishhook eater.

Dock is a component of many other patterns, some examples of which are the following:

Oscillators

Cis-beacon on dock
Trans-beacon on dock
Griddle and dock

Still lifes

Beehive on dock
Cap and dock
Mirrored dock
