Default What's My Line?

I don't see Rob's email. It's not worth it. However, I can't imagine how it
can be "fine" since it's so low. Maybe it's an east coast thing. I've never
seen it out here, not in 30+ years. The way the dock floats? If it floats,
then it rises and lowers with the tide. Can there be another way the dock
floats?

On the fender:

It's in a position that functions fine when I come into

the slip. It's
supported by the float under the dock and keeps me off the

dock when I
come in. Many people here suspend fenders this way because

the dock
float makes it work, but the fenders are usually toast by

the end of
the season.



Some of the powerboaters do that at my marina. Most of the
sailors can dock their boat without banging into stuff.
