Hi RCboater and Mike


Thank you for taking the time to reply...pleased you enjoy the concept. The jetty is 55 inches long and 11 inches wide. It was built from a single piece of special flotation foam purchased from a foam shop, cost about 18 dollars, two sides of 1/2 in plywood with a piece of plywood on top. A final deck was made from a piece of 3mm Sintra ( PVC material )  The concept requires that all buildings  be made from 1/16 ( .060 ) styrene to ensure weight is kept to a minimum. If I was to build another jetty I would make it a bit wider , perhaps 14 inches as most buildings are built to a scale of 1/35 and it does not provide much room at the front for walkways.
