Changes to the Grande-Grave floating dock

Croisière Baie-de-Gaspé, a concessionaire of Forillon National Park that offers whale watching cruises to park visitors, is replacing its floating dock. Located in the center of Grande-Grave harbor, this structure is used to moor their cruise boat and board their customers. The new dock will have the following characteristics: - Two 20-foot sections with a total size of 40 feet by 8 feet (perhaps one foot more than before, maximum) - Positioned in the same place, with the same gangway. - The attachment system will be the same as the previous one. - Materials: Plastic caisson, treated hemlock wood, galvanized metal attachment.
