Ramsey's just a couple of weeks away from having its own swimming raft on South Beach.
Commissioners had been quoted £1,200 to buy the lumber needed to build it, but an on-Island company provided the wood for just £200.
An anchor block weighing six tonnes will make sure the raft doesn't float away.
The local authority says the raft will be completed and in place within the next three weeks.
