ABSTRACT:
A floating structure useful as a mooring device for vessels, comprises an anchor having a rigid arm pivotally interconnected therewith and upstanding therefrom. The rigid arm at its upper end has a pivot about a horizontal axis and also a pivot 360.degree. about a vertical axis by which a float is interconnected to the rigid arm for vertical and horizontal swinging movement relative to the rigid arm. The float may directly overlie the rigid arm, in which case a further rigid arm extends laterally from the float to the vessel or to a further float which in turn is connected to the vessel. Alternatively, the float may be laterally offset from the rigid arm and connected thereto on one side by its own rigid arm and on the other side to the vessel by a further arm rigid with the float and pivotally connected to the vessel.
