ABSTRACT:
A plurality of inflatable and floatable buoyant members uniquely configured and connected on slack lines adaptable to yielding to high tide and storm conditions and in which the lines are secured to anchor members, the members being hollow for receiving a fluid such as water of air, or both, and check valves for locking of closing off the fluid flow as desired. By positioning the buoyant members in the path of sea waves and by minute adjustments of buoyancy, maximizing of dissipation of the waves is achieved.
