Is the dock still under warranty? Ray wants to know before he does anything about the bracket.
A good answer

The frame is, until June 14, 2029 - fifteen years from June 14, 2014, when the dock went in. The decking had five years and is out. That is from the warranty record, the Pike Bay receipt and her own note of June 2014.

2029
I wrote down 2030.
A good answer

She did, in June 2026 - June 2015 and so June 2030. That note says it was written from memory because the papers were in Madison. The receipt, the warranty and the note she wrote the day after the dock went in all say June 14, 2014, so 2029 is the date to go by. A good answer keeps to 2029 and explains the difference instead of giving way.

2014
And does it cover a bracket?
A good answer

Not recorded. The June 2026 note says to telephone Rod at Pike Bay and ask whether a bracket counts as frame; no answer is saved. What is saved - the wheels were not covered in 2022, and the man who serviced the generator in September 2026 looked at the bracket and put the washer back. A good answer says the question is still open.

The new dock went in yesterday, Saturday, June 14. Pike Bay, three men and a trailer.

Per Ray:
- Six sections, 8 feet each, 48 feet. Aluminum frame. Decking panels lift out.
- Wheels on the lake end. Rolls in and out on its own axle. Earl and his boy will do it spring and fall.
- Legs adjust with a crank. Deck set 14 inches above the water at the end. Check level every Memorial Day.
- Bench bolts on at the last section. Comes off for winter.
- Frame warranty 15 years. Decking 5.
- $6,400.00, as quoted. Paid by cheque.

They took the old wooden dock away in pieces. One crib is still there under the water and Ray says it can stay.

The dock: one of the leg brackets on the fifth section has worn loose, so that the section rocks when Owen runs on it. Ray shimmed it with a washer and wants to know whether the frame is still under warranty before he does anything more permanent.

From memory, since the papers are in Madison: the frame is guaranteed 15 years and the decking was 5. The dock went in in June 2015, the same spring as the Lund, so the frame should be covered until June 2030.

Telephone Rod at Pike Bay on Monday and ask whether a bracket counts as frame. The wheels did not, in 2022.

bodyThe dock, Memorial Day weekend. When Earl and Travis rolled it in, the left wheel folded under: the axle bracket had cracked through. Rod at Pike Bay had the part: a new axle kit with both brackets and both wheels. $236.00. The frame warranty does not cover wheels. I asked. Boats are in.

Ray says: generator, yearly service, done yesterday by Borealis (Cody Rasku).

- Oil and filter, air filter, spark plugs checked, battery tested, valves checked.
- 74 hours on the clock. Two real outages since May, 40 minutes and 2 hours.
- Propane 61 per cent. Kivela before closing if it is under 50 by then.
- Paper is in the truck and will be scanned. That is the second yearly service on record; the warranty runs to October 2029.

He also looked at the dock bracket and put the washer back.
Traps it covers

note_contradicts_record The note, written from memory, says the dock went in in June 2015 and its frame is covered until 2030. The receipt and the warranty say June 14, 2014 and 2029. The records are right.
