The present invention is an improved bracket and method for constructing a dock or deck over water on a rocky shore line or on a hard rock face. The present invention includes a base bracket structure having opposite first and second ends, the base bracket being mountable to the rock by a plurality of anchor bolts. A boom having opposite first and second ends is pivotally connected to the base bracket structure adjacent the first end of the angle brackets such that the boom can be set at an angle relative to the base bracket structure, the boom being configured to mount the deck or dock thereon. The improved structure further includes a support rod having opposite first and second ends, the first end of the support rod being pivotally connected to the base bracket structure. The support rod is coupled to the boom by a connector joint located on the boom at a point on the boom between the booms opposite first and second ends. The connector joint is configured to selectively adjust the angle of the boom relative to the base bracket portion such that the boom is substantially horizontal. The connector joint is further configured to fix the boom in place relative to the base bracket portion.
