He describes building a framed boat landing dock with pressure treated lumber and non soluble preservatives, or cribbed railroad ties and pipes as base options, filled with rocks for added resistance.

Maritime safety guidance for small boats and launch ramps

Foss explains floatation options using oil drums or styrofoam planks for small boats where water levels vary due to tides or hydropower. He notes gangplanks for boarding and recommends concrete or asphalt ramps with 12 inches of crushed stone. He also urges wind and wave protection via sheltered sites and proper towing techniques.
