plastic barrels and floating docks
 

Now this sounds like serious nonsense: Does the water entering the
barrel get heavier than the outside water, once it is inside?
Or was this the best a seven foot troll could do? Then try fuel filter
topics for the best results! :)


only thing i would warn is make sure the barrels are not locked into
the dock.
if one gets a crack or hole in it its going to cause problems unless
it can fall out.
if it cant it will pull its section down as it fills with water.

I found some floating dock options online and it looks like there are some professional options vs. Just using barrels. Look at www.cubedocks.com

That's a pretty interesting website. I wonder how'd plastic barrels would do to make a cheap pontoon boat?
