  • Patent number: 6453837
    Abstract: A watercraft beaching device 10 includes one or more collapsible upright supports 11 and 12 which hold a pair cushioned hull engagement surfaces 13 in spaced apart relationship. Advantageously, hull engagement surfaces 13 are elongated to engage more than a single point or area along on side of the hull of watercraft 1 to prevent watercraft 1 from pivoting about the mooring point on the shoreline. Additionally, supports 11 and 12 are configured to hold hull engagement surfaces 13 a sufficient distance above the shoreline to insure that the hull does not come into contact with the aforementioned abrasive agents or shoreline.
