Party Platforms and Fishing Features

Dock Designs
What’s your favorite thing to do on the lake?

Your dock doesn’t have to just be for boating. If you love to host company or enjoy the solitude of fishing, your dock can be a perfect place for those activities!

Party Platforms

If you love entertaining family and friends on the water, a party platform is a must-have addition to your dock. Whether it's hosting summer barbecues, sunset cocktails, or lakeside gatherings, a spacious and sturdy platform offers the ideal setting for socializing. Spice up the space by including accessories like seating, grilling stations, and games. 

Fishing Features

For anglers seeking solitude and serenity, you’ll want to design a dock you can easily fish from. Incorporating a turned section at the end of the dock or along the shoreline provides plenty of space for casting lines and reeling in the day's catch. You can also consider installing fishing rod holders, cleaning stations, and storage compartments for tackle and equipment.

Assessing Your Dock Needs

Dock Designs
Is your boat dock equipped for your favorite activities?

Before designing the perfect boat dock, you’ll want to clearly outline your needs. Consider the watercrafts you own, whether they’re boats, jet skis, or other recreational vehicles. Think about how you want to use the space—perhaps you want your dock to be a hub for social gatherings, or a peaceful fishing retreat. Understanding your needs will guide you during the design process.

For example, if you have more than one boat or watercraft, incorporating boat slips or docks along the side of your main structure can make your dock more functional and less crowded. Boat slips provide designated spaces for each vessel. By using the space efficiently, you can accommodate multiple boats and jet skis without overcrowding the dock.
