Once a ship is in dock and under repair, how can I get it out.

I'm trying to move some of my ships from PH to the West Coast for repair.

No matter what I do I can not able to select the ship to do this.

I wish there was an "emergency" button or something to drop everything and get the ship underway.... such as a response to an invasion, but that doesn't seem to exist. Admittedly, given the nature of some repairs, that button would be a "cheat" but the fact of needing to wait three days no matter what the repairs are is not realistic. Oh well...

To clarify....A ship that is either in Shipyard or Pierside requires 3 days to return to Readiness status. When Walloc says, "set it" he means you have to manually set the ship to Readiness status and then wait 3 days to complete the process. Although the ship will immediately show up in the ship list, the name will be grayed out, and if you hover over the name, you should get a popup message that says something like, "Ready in X days."

If you allowed the ship to begin an upgrade while in a repair status it will tack that time on and do the upgrade too. This is particularly dangerous for the PH BBs which have 1/1/42 upgrades. Once it's in the upgrade you can't put it in Readiness status.
