Bouncing in Alaska

[ltcsz]

Hi: I have noticed that, when attempting to place my floatplane near a dock in many of the seaplane bases, it continually bounces up and down, sometimes severely...When I taxi out just a bit beyond the dock area, it smooths out...I have tried this with numerous seaplanes, so I don't think it is a problem with any individual plane...Advice appreciated!

Just a guess, but I think it has something to do with the height of the land below the water.
