Sizing your Dock
In order to know what size to purchase and how many, you need to know a few things:
- What size boat will be docking at the dock?
- How large is the dock that you will be protecting?
- Select size of buoy based around the largest sized boat that will dock
Dock lips should be installed every 6' on a dock for maximum protection.
| Buoy Size | Boat Size | Recommended Unit Count |
| 6" x 15" | 12' to 20' | 2-3 |

| 10" x 28" | 24' to 38' | 4+ |
