Lets see your boat dock
3 Attachment(s)
This is one of my favorite threads on a different forum. I am not sure why, but it always gets me in the mood to be on the water. I was just told mine has been put in for the season and I am getting pumped. I'll go first.
Northwest Indiana From the dock, from the deck, and from my chair on the deck (you can kind of see it behind my son's head). |
Cool idea for a thread.
We live in shared waterfront too. 53 homes, 18 boat slips, 300' of beachfront, our own ramp, etc. My place is about 2 blocks off the water. Heres a shot from last fall. Last 3 boats on the dock, the hardcores, all Malibus. http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/last2011.jpg |

My back yard...and I have a new 2012 210 TE on the way...I love living on a lake!
|
Whew! Nice view Joey! Lookin forward to putting the new boat in that view!
Thanks PLR. I did a little dock expansion this year & have plans to pump things up a bit on our dock. The finger right behind my boat is now big enough to put a patio table & several chairs on. And we have a 5 watt FM transmitter coming.... should be able to setup our own radio station for all the boats on the dock to tune into. I imagine it will make Saturday afternoons when the lake is a zoo a bit more fun to just hang out on the dock. |
This thread just made me a wee bit jealous. Not a bad friend to have Migs. That pic of the sunset from the hot tub is unbelievable!

A couple of my docks
|
Depends on the type of music LOL, but yes we are going back and forth on it and I keep watching it drop and just can't commit right now with several other things going on. I was out there when Lauri first showed it and have been watching it drop. Can you pm me or email me what the monthly association is out there? Also is there any other fees beside association and anything else I may not be aware of?
P.S. Sorry on the hijack of the thread. |

Being a foil rider, I've been there quite a few times. Used to stay at AZ Shores or (more recently) the Blue Water. Hung out with some of your neighbors over on Apache Loop. Definitely a little slice of heaven. |

Man I'm super stoked that I just bought my first boat! Now I have something to look forward to in the future. Great looking docks everybody!
|
Heck yeah Ed, I could use my 7 iron and hit you! Maybe the driver in AZ :). Wake, sent a PM, not sure if it went through since it was from my phone. Bill, we're you guys just up at the havasu sky ski event two weeks ago?

Our dock. That is my killer guard dog. Jet ski is not in the picture, but we have a 3 seater that sits where the Kayak is now.

Here is what we are working with. http://img.tapatalk.com/6241d27a-d5f1-e29b.jpg
From ramp. http://img.tapatalk.com/6241d27a-d7e4-f502.jpg From sand/fire pit. http://img.tapatalk.com/aefcb06d-d72b-e9eb.jpg From back porch. I just got it cleaned up for summer and despidered for the moment. If anyone knows any tricks for spiders let me know. I have tried everything. With no luck. |
http://store.doyourownpestcontrol.com/demand-cs-8-oz
This is the best spider control we have found. It's micro encapsulated, that means it leaves small globs of the pesticide for residual kill. The spiders crawl through it and it gets on them killing them. I spray three times a year during the active spider season. Cover up when you spray it and don't spray so much that it oversprays into the lake. |
http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/bifen-it-p-226.html
We use this stuff around the lake house, in the boat house, on the dock, etc. Mix it in a 1 gallon pump sprayer. We spray a few times a year. Never had to worry about overspray into the lake......we spray it in the house as well.....Sure you probably want to do it while you don't have a ton of people around, but me, my dad and my father in law have sprayed it for years around all of our houses, garages, swingsets, etc. Not sure if the globs Ronnie mentions are a pain to deal with, but this stuff doesn't leave any residue. Sprayed last weekend and my wife came down a few minutes after and asked where all the spiders went. It may not kill the spiders, but they don't come back around with this stuff. You can see them scatter when you start spraying. It also helps with fleas, ticks, and the site says mosquitoes. Seems to be a bit cheaper than what Ronnie recommended, but that's not to say what he posted isn't better, just have never used anything besides Bifen. If you have a Southern States, Tractor Supply or any ag store nearby, I can bet they have something exactly like it. Just ask for Bifen and I am sure they will point you in the right direction. |
The globs I mentioned are the Micro capsules of the pesticide left when the spray dries. We spray the eaves of the dock, the post bottoms at the deck and the edges of the dock. I've never seen the Micro capsules. They are very small (Micro).

Here is the new dock I am building at my "lake home". Almost done. Here are a few pictures. I am going to add a small square gazebo-style covered area at thw end of the fixed walkway and make the top look kinda like a lighthouse. I am installing BLUE LED lighting when I get everything mechanical done. Here is a pic of the dock and a graphic representation of what the covered area and the lighting will look like.

Yep, the one and only. Jason and I promised him that we would get over there this year so lets set a date. We need some tour guides since we are not real familiar with Douglas. Get with Robert and let us know so we can head over. I am going to let the "much better" comment slide:p |
