An adjustable surf wake system enhances a wake formed by a watercraft travelling through water. The system may include a flap for deflecting water traveling past the stern of the watercraft, and/or a positioner operably connected to the flap for positioning the flap relative to a longitudinal axis of the watercraft between a neutral position and an outward position. Positioning a port flap in its extended position enhances a starboard surf wake, and positioning the starboard flap in its extended position enhances a port surf wake. A wake modifying system for modifying a wake produced by a watercraft traveling through water may include a rudder pivotally mounted to the watercraft for steering the watercraft, a fin pivotally mounted to the watercraft substantially along a centerline of the watercraft and forward the rudder, wherein the fin pivots about an upright axis to modify the wake produced by the watercraft traveling through the water, an actuator mounted within the watercraft and operably coupled to the fin for pivoting the fin relative to the centerline, and a controller mounted on the watercraft allowing an operator to control the actuator and selectively pivot the fin to a desired angle θd relative to the centerline.

A system including: a container device, wherein said container device is configured to track or monitor a consumption of a liquid stored in said container device; a container body that is configured to store the liquid of which consumption of the liquid is tracked or monitored, in which said container body comprises a double walled container body for insulation; a container lid that is configured to prevent the liquid from escaping said double walled container body; a capacitive sensor, wherein said capacitive sensor is configured to monitor the liquid flowing in and out of said double walled container body; and an accelerometer implement, wherein said accelerometer implement is configured to determine a tilt of said double walled container body.

A signal device for maritime distress rescue and a surveillance device for maritime distress rescue are provided. The signal device for maritime distress rescue which is carried by a user aboard a vessel may include a first communicator configured to communicate with a surveillance device for maritime distress rescue of the vessel, a first position detector configured to generate first position information of the signal device at a predetermined time interval, and a first controller configured to receive second position information of the surveillance device from the surveillance device at a predetermined time interval and determine whether the first position information is within a safe area of the vessel that is set on the basis of the second position information. Accordingly, when a distress occurs, it is possible to transmit a distress signal without operating a switch while minimizing power consumption of the signal device.

A potential drowning incident detection system and its constituent components are disclosed. The system includes a device worn on a head of a swimmer, which includes one or more signal generating units. The signal generating units may be positioned on the device adjacent each temple of the swimmer when worn. The system further includes at least one hub configured to receive wireless signals from the signal generating units, and may further be in communication with a server. The hub and/or server may generate an alert or warning when the signals of the signal generating units are not received by the at least one sensor hub. The alert or warning may further be triggered to a wearable device provided to a responder, such as a life guard. Data collected from the swimmer-worn devices may be stored for later analysis.
