I would ditch the barrel idea and use actual dock floats. They have mounting tabs molded into them so you can bolt them to the decking. The yrun about $125 each though.



ETA - all of the docks on our lake are floating, since the water level varies over 10 ft per year. But most are professionally made with metal frames.
