From floating helicopter pads and VIP party decks to marine research centers, GatorDock® and Mantle Industries boat ramps are used every day to safely board and disembark passengers from cruise liners, ferries, and water taxis. We set the industry standard by designing heavy-duty aluminum boat ramps that meet increasing traffic and growing vessel size for passenger loading platforms for tourism or commercial vessels.
The full float dock is constructed with a fully welded aluminum frame that is filled with a polyurethane foam. The frame is attached to the bottom of the dock frame and provides as close to 100% float coverage as possible. This allows for more stability and live load capabilities than our other dock systems.
These economical plastic tubs are filled with polystyrene foam and bolted to the dock frame. Certain locations and applications may not be suited for this floatation type due to the risk of being punctured by watercraft or ruptured during ground out.
Our pontoon float is a popular choice for public boat launches and ramps. The aluminum float shells are filled with durable foam that will remain intact even if exposed to boat fuels and marine chemicals.
