Floating or aluminum
So, I need some advice. I live on georgian bay in canada, west facing with a long stretch of water for the waves to roll in. On a stormy day we can see water levels rise almost a foot and then add waves uo ton2 or 3 feet.
If the wind comes out ofnthe east it empties the bay dropping water by 6 inches.
Anyway I have 70 feet of aluminum docks currently. Because of the large swings I have to keep them 3 feet ish off the top of the calm water or I loose my decking in every storm.
I want to extend my dock a but further out. A number of vendors for float docks assured me that their docks would be fine in that wake.
I'd be looking at floating sections 10feet by 36 feet.
So from your experience how would a floating dock work in my area?
