Kayak Launch Dock Testimonial
|
I wanted to kayak from our dock which is on a beautiful lake in the Adirondaks The water off the dock is too deep for me to step into the kayak without also falling into the water. The only way I was able to kayak was to use the beach front of a nearby friend. Somehow my amazing husband found this floating dock especially made for the independence of launching and docking your own kayak...even if you are not very strong and have poor balance.
My husband attached this floating dock to our traditional wooden dock. Stepping down onto the floating dock is like steping onto a large stable boat deck. The dock only moves minimally. I am able to drag my kayak down from the grass, release the rope at the end of the launching ramp, place my kayak on the ramp...hold the rail and step into the kayak. Then I push my self off either with my paddle and or by pulling my self along on the cleats.
Paddling back onto the ramp is just as easy no matter how windy it is....then pulling kayak up further on ramp using cleats, holding the rail and stepping out onto floating dock. Then I walk around and raise the ramp by the rope attached to it and secure it on a cleat. I absolutely love my new dock, it has given me back my independence. I was even able to launch my visiting friend's kayak and we both used the ramp one behind the other.
