Tips for Installing Your V-Dock

A V-Dock may be the best way for you to get your recreational boat into the water without the need of a companion or other assistance, or it may be the best way for you to get your recreational boat into the water without needing the help from neighbors or extra family members.  The V-Dock is designed to be handled by one or two people, allowing you the freedom and flexibility to launch your boat whenever you want and enjoy the open waters on your own. If you have ever had to rely on your friends and their time schedules to assist you with launching your boat or want the ability to go it alone every once in a while, the V-Dock may be the solution for meeting your boating needs.

The V-Dock is easy to install, even easy enough for just one person to accomplish. Here is some information for you on how the V-Dock differs from traditional launch docks and some basic tips for installing your V-Dock.

V-Dock versus Traditional Docks

The V-Dock comes in three different types designed to accommodate most every boating need. These designed types include the roll-in dock, roll-n-float dock and post sectional docks. V-Docks are designed to be handled by one or two people, making them easier to set-up and use than a traditional dock system. Even some of the alternative boat dock systems that are gaining in popularity require some assistance from a companion in order to get into the water and use. V-Docks are safe and easy to use, and their installation is much easier than a traditional dock’s.

Installing Your V-Dock System   

Installation of any of the V-Dock types that are available is as easy as hauling it to shoreline, moving it into position and rolling it into the water. For example, the roll-in dock can be installed by walking it into position or with the aid of a tow bar on your vehicle. The roll-n-float dock is built with floating pieces that you first set in place by attaching to the post sectional dock. Once installed you simply roll the dock section to the water and mount the posts and detach the floats in order to roll out the additional platform sections, following the same installation steps. Once the easy-to-install floating pieces have been added, maneuvering the roll-n-float dock is a snap. All sizes of V-Dock are much more lightweight than their traditional wood counterparts, and they don’t require an expert to install.

Installing a boat launch in your backyard or at the cabin or another favorite boating location has never been easier. A V-Dock provides you with a way to accomplish the installation process and get on the water in as little time as possible. Considering the alternatives, the V-Dock solution is hard to pass up!
