Do you own a jet ski? Jet skis can be a lot of fun and can be a useful way to quickly get from one place to another. However, for many people, the big problem with jet skis is moving them in and out of the water. Often, you must drive the jet ski down to the water on the back of a trailer and manoeuvre it into the water. At the end of your session, you must collect the jet ski the same way. It would be far better if you had a way of keeping your jet ski in the water where you could mount it with ease. One solution is to find a company with jet ski docks for sale and installing a dock leading out into the water.

Do you want a permanent dock?

You might think that a permanent wooden or stone jetty is the best solution. If you own a property on the coast, you could opt to erect a fixed jetty, but that is expensive and not always easy to complete. You must seek formal permission from the authorities for the building work, and you must be able to demonstrate that the jetty won't adversely affect the marine environment. Added to that, once a fixed jetty is built, future modifications will be expensive. Visiting a retailer with jet ski docks for sale and choosing a floating pontoon jetty is often a more practical option.

Why choose a floating pontoon jetty?

There are at least two reasons that a pontoon jetty is preferable to a wooden or stone jetty.

Speed of construction - Erecting a fixed jetty is a long process. It can take months for permission to be granted by the authorities. You may need to undertake studies to demonstrate that your proposal will not be detrimental to the local area before you can start work. When permission has been granted, you must engage a marine construction company and order all of the materials before you can even think of starting work. By contrast, you can visit a company with jet ski docks for sale and have a new pontoon dock ready to use within a few days.    

A future-proof design - When a wooden jetty is built, it is not easy to alter. If you need to extend the jetty or revise a section, you will need to engage a marine construction company and maybe seek formal permission for the extension. A floating pontoon dock doesn't affect the environment, so no permission is needed. The modular construction of the dock means that you can reconfigure it as your needs change, so it is always perfectly suited to your needs.
