Hi Everyone,

This year I wanted to put a dock on my pond for my paddle boat. I
was
going to buy one of those prefab ones but then I thought, where's the fun
at! Does anyone know even where I should begin? It would have to be at
least
12' long and 3-4' wide.

OK, more seriously. I am guessing the easy part is the decking. The hard
part is the buoncy...the boin...the boya...making it float. How do you do
that cheaply? I'd then think materials are the next concern. I'd probably
use Trex (that new recycled decking) so you don't have pressure treated wood
in contact with your water. If it is half as naughty as they say it is, it
must be very naughty. What then for underneath? PVC? Galvinized steel?
