This invention is for a tossing game and especially for a lightweight, compact and portable tossing game apparatus and method which can be played at the beach or on a water surface or in someone's yard.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A method of playing a tossing game comprising the steps of:
 selecting a tossing game apparatus having a plurality of sets of game target elongated hollow floatable sections, each elongated hollow floatable section being sealed at each end to form a sealed hollow chamber, each section in each set having a generally cylindrical shape having a fastener portion on each end thereof and being removably attachable to at least two other sections for forming a plurality of game targets of different sizes, each game target defining an enclosed open area, and said tossing game having a plurality of groups of compact hand tossable projectiles, each group of projectiles being of a different color from the color of the projectiles of every other group for distinguishing one group's tossable projectiles from the other groups and each projectile in each said group of projectiles being buoyant and having a generally toroidal shape with an inflatable surround portion;   assembling each set of game target elongated hollow floatable sections into a game target with an enclosed open area;   laying out said assembled game targets in a spaced relationship to each other;   marking a tossing foul line a predetermined distance from said laid out targets;   assigning each player a colored projectile;   allowing each player a turn tossing a projectile towards said plurality of laid out game targets from behind the foul line; and   scoring each player relative to the landing of their tossable projectile in one of said plurality of laid out game targets.
