How to get a floating dock into the water
The dock pieces were assembled on a special frame resting on log rollers
The slipway with log rollers
With a little nudging the dock is on the rollers and on the way
The frame under the dock protects the floats
With a little persuasion the dock rolls down the ramp
Almost there
In the water
We pulled the frame out from under the dock once it was floating free
We loaded two 125 lb concrete anchors for the ride over to the dock site
The anchors are set and attached to steel rods driven into the bottom. Anchor chains attached and then the dock is connected to the first floating section with a hinge pin. Now all we need is a ramp to connect the two floating sections to the fixed dock.
