I flipped a completed 12x12 dock , but had 4 people to do it. Flipping a 6x10 should be less difficult. I used all the Menard's floats that I could fit under the dock, and have not moved it since I intalled it 10 years ago. It's held up great so far. The wood has been re-sealed once about 4 years ago. I favor a gangway. I intalled chains in an "X" pattern (under the gangway) to a fixed dock and used turnbuckles to tighten up the chains and limit swing.
