Imagine your family lounging and playing around a well-constructed PWC dock, maximizing every moment on a beautiful Saskatchewan lake. A well-designed PWC dock can make your lake experience more enjoyable and safe. If you’re ready to tackle this DIY project, here’s a straightforward guide to building a PWC dock using some of the best floating dock options available.
1. Plan Your PWC Dock Design
Start by mapping out your PWC dock. Consider the size you need based on how many people will use it, the number of personal watercraft (PWC) you have, and the available space. A thoughtful design ensures that your dock will be both functional and enjoyable.
2. Choose the Right Dock
For a reliable and spacious option, the EZ Port® 280 is an excellent choice. This dock is specifically designed to handle PWCs with ease, making it ideal for both storage and launching. At 80 inches wide and 156 inches long, it offers ample space for easy access and maneuvering. The rollers in the center simplify docking and launching, making it a perfect fit for a PWC dock. Plus, its durable construction means less maintenance and a longer product life.
3. Install the EZ Port® 280
To create a solid base for your PWC dock, the EZ Port® 280 provides a great foundation. Its split-entry rollers make driving your watercraft onto the port easy and keep it secure when not in use. Be sure to anchor the dock securely to the lakebed or integrate it into your existing docking system. Ensure it is placed where water currents and wind won’t affect its stability.
4. Enhance with the EZ Port® 2i Bow Stop
For added security and convenience, pair your EZ Port® 280 with the EZ Port® 2i Bow Stop. This accessory helps guide your PWC into the correct spot and prevents overshooting during docking. It’s mounted at the front of the port, offers extra protection, and enhances the stability of your dock. This is especially useful for preventing accidents and ensuring a smooth docking experience.
5. Add Safety Features
Safety is key when building your PWC dock. Install handrails or safety ropes around the edges to prevent accidental falls. The PWC docks are designed to be durable and stable, but additional safety measures will provide peace of mind, especially if you have young children or guests.
6. Customize Your Dock
Finally, consider what extras you can add to make your PWC dock even more enjoyable. Think about adding loungers, a small table, or even a shade canopy to enhance your time on the water. The EZ Port® 280 provides a solid base, and with a bit of creativity, you can turn it into the perfect spot for relaxation and fun.
