ABSTRACT:
A marina having a main walk buoyantly supported on main flotation elements, with the main walk providing access to one or more finger sections buoyantly supported on finger flotation elements. The main walk and the finger sections are each formed from spaced frame members having sunken shoulders which support transversely extending deck elements which define walking surfaces flush with the frame members. Each main frame member may be formed from a plurality of main frame elements disposed in end-to-end abutment. Each pair of main frame elements is joined by a structural element having spaced main frame plates which may engage each main frame member of the main walk. The main frame plates may be interconnected at their edges by a tying member which extends below the main walk.
