  • Floating docks are a type of dock that consists of a series of interconnected floats made of plastic, wood, concrete, or other materials. The floats are usually attached to a frame that rests on the bottom of the water body. A floating dock can stay in ice if it is properly designed and if the ice is not too thick. The weight of the dock and the ice must be distributed evenly so that the dock does not sink or break through the ice.

    Floating docks are a type of dock that is supported by floats rather than being attached to the bottom of a body of water. Yes, floating docks can stay in ice. The weight of the ice will press down on the floats, keeping the dock in place.
