A boat lift can totally solve this problem and I have a beautiful 3600-lb capacity, manually operated, Shore Station boat lift, about 9'4" inside width, good to six feet water depth with four adjustable legs for uneven bottom ....... used price $1200 ...... everything works ...... well maintained ...... #1 greatest boat lift in world history of boat lifts since boat lifts were first invented!
An electric motor that turns the big wheel can be purchased from someone else, later on or something if you decide you want one like if you have a 3000-lb boat.
Positioned good, a 400-lb boat lift with a 2000-lb boat can definitely help to keep a light weight dock, too close to lake surface, from getting beat up and maybe swept away by the waves, overnight.
6:10-am ...... sun rising ..... hey, like where's the dock ...... the dock is gone? ..... someone must have stole my dock last night ......
