She's the first SPD (Self-Propelled Dry dock) there is an indication of more IE Respite Island Class SPDDs  It was also mentioned useful for carrying bulky cargos. She's mentioned in Storm Surge, they need her to repair SMS Amerika she carries Chaks troops and the PTs. Any more would be Deadly Shores spoilers but, I give the Discription from Deadly Shores she is classed as an auxillary "Respite Island Class SPD (self-propelled dry dock)  are designed along similar lines to the purpose built carriers, inspired by the massive seagoing Lemurian Homes.  They are inteded for rapid deployment, Heavy lift dry docks, and bulky transport." [DS Hb. p. 435] Note no mention of the indusrty I included in design but, what good is lifting something you can't repair?
