I was wondering about dock flotation with plastic barrels on my way to work this morning. What load rating can you get from 30 and 55 G plastic barrels that are all sealed up?

I can get Polypropylene (inert) barrels from 4-6 bucks each, depending on quantity. And all they ever had in them was pop syrup or orange juice concentrate. They rinse out really well.

I am not sure it was esshup that hit Crystal Springs with Cecil last year, but you were only a few miles away.
