afaik the game doesn't look at the size of the ship. It only has a list of ports with/without drydocks. Nothing about sizes in there. So you can repair a panamax in all ports where you cn also repair Bearsie's coasters. Which one is the cheapest I don't know.

That is not quite correct.
While all ports that have a dock listed in the townfile can repair any ship up to panamax (the cheapest being Amsterdam and Kingston, Jamaica) only a few can deal with "post" panamax ships...
Unfortunately they are not listed as such in the townfile, the only way to find those is to start a game and send a post panamax ship to each harbor
to find out!
I have NO clue why it is set up like that ... Nor do I know which file and how to access it
I do have a world map that lists some of the post panamax docks, but thats about it. I can email it and or put it on the website.

To get a price range one would have to go into the townfile and look at the line: <repda> less than 100 is cheap, more than 100 is dear...
List of post panamax docks below, Note: I did not check them all personally
Europe =
Marseilles, Rotterdam, Naples, Helsinki, Stockholm, Bremerhaven, Hamburg, Cuxhaven, Gotenburg, Lisbon.
North America =
Miami, Houston, New York, Quebec, Montreal, Honolulu, Seattle, Vancouver, San Francisco, Los Angeles.
Asia =
Hong Kong, Tokyo.
Australia =
Adelaide, Sydney.
South America and Africa = none
This is an old map that was given to me sometime back, not all harbors are listed in it, for instance Brisbane is missing

There have been discussions about this before.
Curacao comes to mind 
Some of the locations of these docks make no sense whatsoever !
Where one would expect a dock there is none !
There was never a response that I recall from RDK as to updating the locations of post panamax docks to bring them inline with reality...

Does not matter, I just want to remind you. In my game I use Seattle as my home port.

| If you are loading a ship with the loading menu, you can see top right of your screen a list with the towns available. Next to it you can see if it is possible for the ship (you are loading) to be repaired at that port. Yes = you can, No = you can't |

Cool Beans  I never paid attention to that line where it says: dock "free" or NO figured always RDK was giving away free berths in a raffle
