About the Project
The City of Pompano Beach wanted to provide Wahoo Bay’s visitors with unparalleled water access. By recognizing the limitations of their fixed concrete pier, they reached out to AccuDock to design a custom floating dock that would not only transform their waterfront into an inviting oasis but also provide their visitors with safe and easy access to the water.

About the Solution
The dock features a spacious 7′ x 14′ entry platform constructed with durable PVC decking in a driftwood finish and is secured by safety pickets. Access to the platform is facilitated by a 5′ x 40′ ADA Compliant aluminum gangway equipped with non-skid decking and intermediate handrails for safety. The main attraction is the 16′ x 34′ floating dock, providing ample space for relaxation and enjoyment. For easy boarding, custom ladders are conveniently located on both the southeast and southwest sides of the dock.
