Have helped a few friends over the years when their floating piers got hung at the top of posts during winter floods. unbolt a few brackets and anchor it and tie it off to a few trees till the waters go back down... then put it back together in the spring.
I like my fixed pier and boat lifts - but pressure washing the mud and fish slime off when it floods takes time not to damage the wood. I can see the advanages of a float - but have seen too many free floating down the river.
Funniest was a few years ago there was what appeared to be a two car garage floating down river, even had two roll up doors - thought it had broken free somewhere - state patrol was towing it for someone. Someone purchased the building added floats and pushed it into the water with a dozer to relocate it. Amazed they were able to get it in the water without breaking anything.
