Abstract
A portable seawall system is designed to upwardly extend an existing seawall. The system includes a base bracket designed to attach to the upper edge of the existing seawall. A wall section extends upwardly from the existing seawall. Multiple triangular brace assemblies each extend above and below the base bracket and engage the wall section and the existing seawall. A membrane seals the wall section to the existing seawall. The membrane is interconnected with the wall section and with the existing seawall. Multiple wall sections may be joined end to end to form a continuous seawall.
