Lowered a small dock a couple of weeks ago and found several interesting things. This goes back to choosing your dock builder wisely from my previous posts. They painted the outside of the channel to look like it was galvanized, one post was not even welded to the purlin. No additional brackets to the channel and posts like we do. A small gauge tube in one spot vs channel. And lastly wrong screws that create mushroom deck finish. Don’t ask, I have no clue why it was 5 feet above the water. Fun stuff.
