Is there something underneath eg: a net?
One suggestion is barrier=boom (there's 30 of these):
https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/37418/tag-line-of-floating-buoys-near-weir-or-dam
other people have used barrier=net (423 of these) or barrier=shark_net
(6 of these).

Continuing on with swimming areas, we've got a few on the GC that
consist of a floating boom suspending an underwater net, surrounding the
designated area. One of them then has a swimming raft in it:

In OSM, the boom's are currently marked as fences:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=18/-27.96790/153.41779, which
doesn't really seem right?
I can see reference in the wiki to an oil-boom, which is a floating boom
to contain oil spills, but not really appropriate.
Don't know if they'd be a pontoon either, because you can't really climb
up on it.
Any thoughts?
Graeme
Thanks
Graeme

The swimming raft describes it exactly
man_made=pontoon was my first thought but wasn't sure (was checking
on a mobile device on the bus) so I'll use that.
With tagging the ladder, the pontoons can rotate a fair bit so how
sensitive is the position of something like a ladder?
Swimming area is also something I plan on marking as these swimming
areas do have buoys on like a cable around the perimeter marking the
boundary.
Thank you to everyone for their input so far, the help is very much
appreciated.

As for the pontoon, per

<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dpier> "The
man_made=pier tag is used for a raised walkway over water
supported by
pillars made of metal/wood, or floating and secured using
chains",
plus floating=yes
It would depend on whether we are talking about a floating jetty:

<http://www.letsonslanding.com/images/IMG_4212dock_wide.jpg>
or what our American friends would call a swimming raft:

<http://manitoulincedar.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/swim-raft-2013.jpg>
The first one is a pier but the second one isn't.
It seems that there are two ways to tag a swimming raft. The
first is from OpenSeaMap seamark:type=pontoon
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:seamark:type%3Dpontoon
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:seamark:type%3Dpontoon>
There's 36 of these. The other is man_made=pontoon (There's 87
of these).
