Launching Pad

The Sheet Pile has been driven into place, never to move again! They have anchored it back to a huge concrete block that has been poured in place. You will see the tie rods that stretch from the sheet pile, back about 25 feet, to the block. It will all be buried soon. We won't see the concrete block. This is where the boats will be launched, the mast stepper will be installed, and the gangway down to the floating docks (dock "C" maybe?) will be attached.

Bruce provided the photo's. The dates they were taken can be see superimposed on each picture. In this post it goes from newest to oldest.


Pouring Cement. They insulated it after they were done. It generates enough heat that is sets properly as long as it is insulated.


The vertical green pipe is for the mast stepper.




The sheet pile looks nice and straight in this shot


Some finishing touches.


The sheet pile was very ragged across the top edge before they cut it level.
