Abstract: The docking system (10) includes a plurality of docking members (16, 17, 18) connected together end to end. Each docking member (16, 17, 18) is anchored to the bottom surface (47) of the body of water by means of a combination of fixed anchor members (42, 44), connecting cables (46, 52) and a suspended anchor member (50) which is suspended in the water between the respective docking members (16, 17, 18) and the bottom surface (47). At the water end of the plurality of docking members (16, 17, 18) is positioned crosswise a breakwater member (19) which is substantially longer than the width of the docking members (16, 17, 18). The breakwater member (19) has an anchor system comprising a fixed anchor member (64), an anchor cable (68) and a suspended anchor member (70).
