Dock Installation (Day 2)

The dock was finished yesterday! Oh happy days! I can now sit at my kitchen table and watch my boat, certain it hasn't floated away or sank, instead of neurotically worrying about it in some random slip far, far away. Everything went smoothly with the remainder of the installation, although it did take three guys to finish it.

The day started with all three guys gearing up in dry suits. Brrrr...



Then they flipped over the third section of dock and floated it out on a floating dock section.





And attached it



Next they added on the bench, stairs and swim ladder.



Then, it was back to the lift. They had to jack it up to put longer legs on the far side.



And then it was pushed into place



Lastly, the winch was installed and the canopy could be fastened on





Here is the final shot. The only thing left to do is put the canopy cover on, but we are going to wait for a calm day to do that so we don't lose it in the water.
