A portable marine shelter that includes a frame assembly having two lower spaced apart longitudinally extending members, or float bars, and a flexible cover that fits over the frame assembly to provide an enclosure to store a boat and the like. A floatation system includes numerous sphere-shaped floats that are rotatably attached to the lower frame members, the floats are also free to move longitudinally along predetermined sections of the lower frame members. The floats are substantially equally distributed between the two lower members and along each individual member. The loosely attached floats enables the shelter to accommodate wave and wind generated motion without unduly stressing the frame assembly of the boat sheltered therein. The entire shelter is loosely attached to a dock and loosely anchored to the bottom of the lake, etc. to provide a structure that securely protects a boat yet is capable of being moved easily to different locations.

A portable marine apparatus comprising an elongate frame assembly having a pair of lower spaced apart longitudinally extending members, said frame assembly adapted to support a flexible cover to produce an enclosure for sheltering a boat on a water surface; and a plurality of floatation devices connected to each of the lower members of the frame assembly, said floatation devices being free to rotate about the lower members and being free to slide longitudinally along a predetermined section of the lower members, said floatation devices being substantially evenly distributed between the pair of lower members, wherein the floatation devices provide sufficient buoyancy to support the total weight of frame and cover on the surface of the water.
