A combination float and bracket assembly for a floating structure that includes a float body made of closed-cell foam with a plurality of transversely aligned L-shaped brackets that extend upward from the float body's top surface. Each bracket includes horizontal and vertical flanges, During manufacturing, a plurality of bracket cutouts are formed in the float body's top surface, and a bracket is then inserted into each bracket cutout so that the brackets' vertical flanges extend upward above the top surface. Connectors attach the vertical flanges to a frame member. In one embodiment, a transversely aligned void area is formed in the float body adjacent to the vertical flange.
