MultiNautic 5′ x 10′ Medium Profile Aluminum Floating Dock Kit

This page presents the 5 ft. x 10 ft. Medium Freeboard Aluminum Floating Dock Kit Model QPF-495 (cedar decking not included), product #21568. With its medium freeboard of approximately 16 in. above water, you will easily board a boat from this dock. The Multinautic QPF-495 Aluminum Dock Series makes it easy to create the dock that fits your needs. This simple collection allows you to combine 5 ft. x 10 ft. dock sections in a straight line, side by side, or in an “L” shape to suit your design. It’s the ideal dock size for a lightweight frame assembly that offers either a low or medium freeboard, depending on your preferred nautical activities and the specifications of your shoreline. Choose from stationary and/or floating ensembles, with or without cedar decking. Each unit is modular, giving you the flexibility to configure it as needed. Combining three or more dock sections in a basic floating layout (stationary + semi-floating + floating) allows you to moor a boat up to 25 feet long. Its sleek and uniquely designed aluminum frame system lets you insert mooring cleats (and other accessories) into the top track without drilling into your decking, and relocate them as needed. Decking boards are assembled as panels for easy removal from the sub-frame, making maintenance simple year after year. The included assembly hardware for the frame is made of stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized steel.

PLANNING GUIDE

 ASSEMBLY GUIDE

Description

• To help you decide what combination is best for your waterfront, take a look at the short Installation Planning Guide. More details can also be found in the Assembly Guide. Both files are available on this web page. The basics are also described below.
• A floating dock system must include a semi-floating ramp, which you will create using a floating kit. Before your semi-floating ramp, install enough stationary docks to reach further out to the floating area in up to 4 ft. of water depth.
• To create your floating dock layout, transform one floating dock kit into a semi-floating dock by using only 2 of the 3 supplied floats. Switch the 3rd float to a second floating dock for a total of 4. All following dock sections will have 3 floats each.
• This medium freeboard floating dock unit comes with three 24 in. L x 60 in. W x 12 in. H foam-filled dock floats, with 500 lbs. of buoyancy each. Long hexagonal bolts with oversized flat washers are included for their safe installation.
