CA 2463842

Apparatus for the collection of rainwater falling over the seas by means of a catchment module consisting of a ring of floating booms connected by articulating means to form a flexibly connected polygonal shape. A flexible waterproof catchment bag for catching and storing; rainwater is suspended from the ring of booms. Tension ties constrain the booms to keep the bag open and to maintain the polygonal shape for modular assembly with other units. A plurality of modules may be joined together to form a large catchment network, which may be positioned at sea where rainfall is available by anchoring means as necessary. The flexibly connected booms enable the entire network to float rafted together for increased stability and allows passage of sea waves without generating excessive structural stresses in the structure. Suction tubes connected to pumps enable the collected water to be delivered to tanker vessels or pipe delivery systems.
