An illuminated guide pole for a watercraft-supporting structure includes an elongate LED light source enclosed within a waterproof housing mounted to the supporting structure. The housing includes a transparent pipe for surrounding the LED light source. The light source is electrically connected to a source of power and may include an LED whip light device.

A boat cradle assembly is adapted for dry storage of a pontoon boat having a deck and a hull. The hull includes a tubular midline pontoon. The boat cradle assembly comprises first and second spaced apart longitudinal side beam. A plurality of crossbeams extends between the first and second side beams. Each crossbeam has a substantially V-shaped bottom structure and a top structure. The V-shaped bottom structure is configured to reside between and engage spaced apart frame members of a dry storage rack. The top structure defines an intermediate arcuate formation configured to accommodate a rounded underside of the midline pontoon.

The present invention is a personal watercraft lift and transporting cart. In particular, the present invention is directed to a lift that can lift and rotate a personal watercraft (“PWC”) so that repairs can be conducted more ergonomically. The lift preferably has two lifting arms attached to upright frame members. In turn, the upright frame members extend vertically from a mounting base. The lift also preferably has two actuators pivotally attached to the lifting arms at one end and attached to the mounting base at the other end. When the actuators extend, the lifting arms lift and rotate. The transporting cart preferably has a cart chassis, a hull bunk and two receivers, where the first and second receiver are spaced to allow insertion of the first and second lifting arms so that the cart can be lifted and rotated by the lift with PWC mounted on the cart.

A watercraft storage structure for storing a watercraft comprises a plurality of supports, wherein each support includes a clamping bracket; a shelf slidably attached to the plurality of supports by the clamping bracket attached to each plurality of supports forming a watercraft storage area; and a support platform positioned within the watercraft storage area, wherein the support platform is adapted for supporting a watercraft; wherein the each clamping bracket includes a first plate and a second plate that operate to press against the support forming a frictional fit with the support.

A watercraft storage system for storing and securing one or more watercraft and other equipment used in conjunction with the watercraft. Securing of the watercraft in a storage location of the watercraft storage system, and the other equipment in a compartment associated with the storage location, is achieved, at least in part, by a moveable, e.g., rotational, arm structure associated with the storage location being in a locked position and the size of at least one dimension of the watercraft exceeding the size of a corresponding dimension of the storage location including the moveable arm structure.
