They barged out excavators, dump trucks and material to clear the lot and install the septic in November 2004, then the materials for the platform and log home kit was delivered by barge, crane and skid steer in late December. Our dock did not go in until July 2005 which was about the same time we took occupancy.

Breakwaters can certainly ring up a bill when needed.
My assumption was that this was a DIY deal he was talking about. Need a place to dock your own boat while building your house.
