  • This is an early version of us installing Dock floats.
    We now offer delivery with training for the dock cans (typical cost with delivery and training approximately $12,000, or we offer all the components except the ballistic, with phone support and written directions, we ship one pallet that contains everything else you need($8,000)
    All the materials we supply are stainless steel and high density plastics, making for a reliable unit season after season.
    Prices and equipment specified are determined by the size of the floats to be installed.

    This was really awesome to witness. We have a sailboat ⛵️ in California and I am learning as much as possible about how everything works including marinas and docks. Thanks for sharing.

    I wonder if they make smaller submersible and refillable floats for residential docks to install in the fashion

    He casually commented about using “1,900 pounds” of counterweight. That’s a Volkswagen Bug!! Where would someone even get such a thing?

      Would really love "sardine can" buildings instructions. In dire need of something like this for our house boat.
      Or where we could possibly rent one in lower Alabama.

    Why not just use a come a long to lift the whole structure by the piling to replace about three or four floats. Only takes "about five minutes".

    • @jordanjohnson8688
      @jordanjohnson8688 Před 4 lety

      Less expensive too. Just use a short chain to wrap around the top of the post, hook the come a long to the chain, then hook other end to the pole guide or structure and Jack it up. If theres no piling then use a 4x4 four or five foot taller than the water depth
