ABSTRACT:
A bumper assembly for a marine structure where a vertical resiliently encased main cylinder is secured at the upper end to the marine structure by a releasable connection with the lower support for the main cylinder including an upstanding stab post extending into the bottom of the main cylinder and coaxially aligned with the upper end of the main cylinder. A resilient cylinder is positioned between the inside of the main cylinder and the outside of the stab post. Preferably the internal diameter of the resilient cylinder is slightly larger than the diameter of the stab post and provides a pivotal cushion at the bottom of the main cylinder to permit angular displacement of the main cylinder from the vertical position.
