Anyone selling a dock?

Bucktail,

As I often do, I play the devils advocate when I here people thinking that the only way to get a easier to handle dock is to go to Aluminum. I have many numerous suggestions and design ideas, some of which I have proven to work, quite well and I use personally for wooden docks... If you build sections smaller, and make floor boards removable etc. etc. you can lighten the load and make things much more workable.
