A Fishbone style dock is a multi-slip dock that has slips on either side of a central walkway. A ‘Fishbone Style’ design is typically the most efficient use of space to allow for the maximum number of slips within an area and the most cost efficient from a price perspective. This layout is typically used when a multi-slip dock extends perpendicular to the shoreline. Anchoring for this style of dock is typically achieved with pilings or cables and dead weights.

E-Shaped layouts align slips along one side of a central walkway. This style is typically used on occasions when a dock runs parallel with the shoreline or other obstruction. Anchoring this style of dock is typically achieved with stiff arms or pilings, although other methods can be used.

Using aluminum as the primary construction material affords Wahoo Docks™’ engineers the flexibility to design almost any dock imaginable. We can incorporate a wide variety of features including upper decks and varying roof styles and differing dock shapes. We have designed docks for purposes ranging from marinas and community docks to floating bars and work platforms.
