ABSTRACT:
A marine dock hitch which is designed to facilitate the quick and convenient attachment of a boat to a dock, facilitates locking of the boat to the dock to prevent theft of the boat, and provides a resilient connection between the boat and the dock to accommodate considerable elevation changes in the tide and wave action of a water body while the boat is attached to the dock. The marine dock hitch includes an elongated hitch bar having a hitch coupling provided on each end. One of the hitch couplings is removably attached to a hitch catch provided on the dock, and the other of the hitch couplings is removably attached to a hitch catch provided on the boat.
