slipping

This might sound too slippery, but I took the sentence below from Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patent_slip). There are also slipways used for the same purpose and in building the vessel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slipway)
Example sentence:

The process of **slipping** a vessel is an easy, cheap and straightforward way to take a large vessel out of water for inspection or repair.
