Very nice build friend looks like you put a lot of thought and time in it i like the Way that you said you like to it cheap more is not always better in many cases and a lot more easier to maintain i think its the perfect size plenty of from injoy and have a great time
How much did the entire platform cost? And how much do the dock floats cost a piece? Where did you get the dock floats and the materials to build the platform?
The platform in 2020 cost right at $5k completely decked off. The permafloat floats from Home Depot online 8’ long 3’ wide 2’ deep cost $580 a piece. Everything came from Lowe’s or Home Depot I had a $12k limit between my two cards to build it. Everything up to the wall bottom plates is treated
@@TheSpiritofEnlightenment the website has the buoyancy numbers on each float size. But mine hold 2771lbs each. I sat on a wood weight per board foot website and figured in every single piece of wood I could think of. The website had every dimensional piece of lumber you can imagine from 2x4s to plywood. Treated and untreated, wet and dry weights. I figure everything was around 10,000 lbs plus I gave it another 2k lbs just to be safe before I ordered floats. I just sat down and did the math.

@@Capt_T_Ray Thanks for the quick response. It is greatly appreciated!
I have one more question. How much weight do your floats hold and how much did your frame and house weigh?

@@Capt_T_Ray Wow thanks. I have one more question. What are the dimensions of your platform and the dimensions of the house?
Does it leak where you have cabin sitting on a platform?
Why would it 🥴
Interesting. It's close-ups of everything, it's way too fast.
Yet here you are
