ABSTRACT:
A portable dock and dock sections used therewith, characterized by each of the dock sections have a plurality of frame members forming a rectangular deck frame for supporting a deck assembly, a pair of adjustable legs extending from adjacent one end of the rectangular deck frame and a first coupling unit disposed on a frame member at the other end of the deck frame. Preferably, an additional or second coupling unit, which is adapted to cooperate with a first coupling unit, is arranged either on an end or side frame member or both at the one end to enable connecting sections together to form either a straight line pier or a pier with a "T" or "L" shape. The portable dock also includes an anchor section having an anchor member with a similar coupling unit which coact with the first coupling unit of a first dock section for securing the first dock section to the beach or shoreline.
