As Osms stated, there are a lot of questions and possibilities. I am not one to shrimp on dollars when it comes to value or as JIM might say __------.

Oh well, I went with a well constructed wooden seawall witht rip-rap in front as required by APCO. I am in a back-waters area and do not get a tremendous amount of traffic or boat action. Therefore, I went with what will give me the most natural appearnce for my lot and will last me my lifetime and probabaly that of the next owner.

I am not in deep water which adds cost (deep water) since you are not just discussing lengh in feet but multiplied several times over by the depth. Ride around and see what appeals to you, and what you think will look best for your lot. A seawall is significant in curb appeal since your front yard is the Lake. Then discuss with contractors and go with what is within your budget plus some and then some.

So, there is not always one right answer for everyone and every lot.
