The dock is a 1.5mm PVC container with a non-skid top, a Velcro closure and four D-rings. You load it with four 8 x 4 ft x 2 in foam panels from a hardware store, and several docks can be roped together for a bigger platform. Adding a plywood layer helps with heavier loads.

Specs at a glance

  • Size: 8 x 4 ft x 8 in
  • Material: 1.5mm PVC with non-skid surface
  • Weight: 23 lbs (empty)
  • Included: dock container with 4 D-rings
  • Not included: foam panels (4 needed, 8 x 4 ft x 2 in)
  • Fits: kayak or canoe, inflatable boat up to 9 ft, KaBoat up to 15 ft
  • Color: dark gray

Good to know

  • Foam panels are sold separately, so pick up four 2 in thick 8 x 4 ft sheets locally before setup day.
  • Join two docks with rope through the D-rings if you need room for a longer boat.

KayakDIY take: I like any dock that lets you supply your own foam and build it yourself. For more options, see my inflatable boat reviews.
