Questions & Answers
I'd like to make sure that 4x10' floating dock is low-freeboard (or relatively close to). Use will be for family canoes and kayaks.
Our floats individually will float in 1 1/2 to 2" of water. A single float is 9" tall and has 500 lbs. of buoyancy. The actual height an entire dock section will sit above the water varies based upon the weight of the wood to create the frame and top. For treated wood this height (free board) is typically 9" as measured to the top of the decking. Please keep in mind the number and weight of people utilizing the dock will also effect the free board. Any additional questions please let us know. 1-888-752-9782
Would like to make 2-kit (4 x 20) canoe dock in area with lots of ice movement. How easy is it to remove pipes from lake at the end of the season? Is there a better solution than augers?
Augers can be removed every season by untwisting them. Some method in which that are installed. Does your water have seasonal changes in the height that requires a floating dock?

can this product sustain a frozen lake and about 12 ft of snow in the winter while remaining in the water?
Normal freezing and thawing will not damage a PlayStar Dock. However, docks are left in at owner’s discretion. No dock can withstand heavy ice movement. You should consider the following factors: What has been the history of ice movement at your location? Do other dock owners in your area take their docks in or leave them out? Are there local restrictions or requirements? What kind of recreational activities take place around the dock during the winter? Any additional questions please let us know. 1-888-752-9782.
Do the PlayStar floats come filled with foam?
They are air filled. Have had mine a couple of years in salt water. It works fine. I used pressure treated frame with IPE tops sides.
no
I think they’re just hollow thick plastic. You don’t have to add foam. Mine have been floating without issues for two years.
Do the Plaster floats come with foam?
Can you leave it in the water when the lagoon freezes in New Jersey

If I was to use this system as a small barge what is the weight capacity it will hold
PlayStar floats each have a 500 lb buoyancy rating. A 4' x 10' Commercial Grade Floating Dock utilizes 3 floats in the design. Depending on the type of decking each section will have approximately 1,100 to 1,200 lbs of buoyancy = 1,500 buoyancy for the 3 floats less the weight of the wood frame, brackets, hardware and decking. Any additional assistance needed please let us know. 1-888-PLAYSTAR (752-9782).
