On a Canal in Florida |
 |
|
6’ jet ski docks allow plenty
of space to walk around the PWC’s when on
the floats. |
 |
 |
This installation is in a canal on the
intercostal in Florida in
salt water. The 6’
jet ski docks are moored on all four
corners. The owner uses a straight dock
ladder attached
to the sea wall to board the
jet ski docks at low tide. |
The Jet-ski or personal water craft is
supported
by rollers
so it does not touch the float at all. |

This customer had their
dock built in an L configuration for easy
access to the 6’ PMI jet docks.
These floats are moored with pier pipe close
to the dock. Drive up and step off. The
woman in the picture panicked our crew,
she
gave the PWC the throttle when she should
have been backing off. The watercraft rolls
so easily on the PMI jet ski dock
that you
need to back off the throttle as soon as you
feel it rolling. It may take a little
practice but you’ll love the ease
of loading
and unloading once you get the hang of it. |

Installed in a 12' Wide Marina Slip |
 |
 |
This installation shows two 5’ PMI jet ski
docks in a 12’ marina slip. These are moored
using the Dock or Seawall Attachment Kit
(the two pieces of galvanized steel). PWC
pipe and flat bushings are used in the
mooring. The image to the right shows
galvanized pier
pipe with a raised bushing.
Compare this picture of the 5’ wide jet ski
docks to those of the 6’ wide (below) to see
the walk around space.
The 6’ wide PMI jet
ski docks may be too tight in a 12’ dock
opening. |

In a channel on Lake Wawasee |
An installation in a channel on Lake Wawasee
in Indiana.
Our float replaced an existing float after
buying a newerheavier PWC.
The new PWC rolls right on-off the PMI float with
ease. |

In Front of a Sea Wall |
 |
Here are two 6’ PMI jet ski docks
installed in shallow water near a sea-wall
on a lake in Indiana. You can see the
connector kit and the two jet ski floats are
moored with two pieces of pier pipe. We
suggested that the pipe be cut down so that
it doesn’t stick up as shown in the photo,
but the owner likes the height. He said it’s
handy to hold onto when stepping down to get
on the jet ski docks. You can see how much
walk around space the 6’ wide jet ski dock
has versus the 5’.
We are often asked for an opinion on
attaching the floats together or mooring
them separately side by side.
|
| We sell
a lot of connector kits at $175 but all it
really eliminates is mooring them separately
side by side. The cost of an extra mooring
kit (8’) is $75 although you might want an
additional set of bushings $59. Some people
think that attaching two jet ski docks
together helps increase the buoyancy and
that it is a help with the biggest new jet
ski’s. Our individual Wave Port jet ski
docks have so much buoyancy that we
sometimes question the benefit of tying them
together. |
