Another thing you hear of is the docket this is the list of cases being heard in a court and prisoners sit in the dock just like a ship sits at the dock in a harbor....

With all respect, this is an example of the sort of thing that appeals to one's interest and curiosity, but that can, and often does, lead down the wrong path and can cloud your judgement if it is not properly understood and placed in the appropriate context.
I'm not saying there is no maritime law, there is. I'm not saying that maritiime law has not been imported into the law of the land, including common law and statutory law, it has. What I'm saying is that while the stuff Maxwell talks about has elements of truth to it and it is interesting, if not fascinating, to listen to and read, I suggest that you not spend too much time on this berthing, bill of lading, stream of income flowing along the banks, gold finged flag stuff, unless your goal is simply to pass the time away and be entertained.
