After nearly three years of owning our canal home in Port Charlotte, it was time to refurbish our dock.
Below are some before/after shots of the project:

The above low step, with the mold stains, occasionally gets submerged during extreme tides like after tropical storm surge or hurricanes passing hundreds of miles west of us. The old broken down dock box, on the right is soon to be replaced by a new one as well.
Notice the bobcat tracks left overnight? Theyt wiped right off. In the background you can see some of the new riprap seawall recently shored up, as well.

New 150 gallon dock box from Sam's Club - $99. We firmed up the floor with half inch plywood and used four wood screws to secure the box in place.
