A cylindrical receiver has an upper region with female screw threads, a lower region, and a centrally located washer. A cylindrical sleeve has an upper end with male screw threads threadedly coupled to the female screw threads of the receiver. A cylindrical passageway is formed between the receiver and the sleeve. A cylindrical stake is slidably received in the sleeve. A tether line couples the stake to a movable patch whereby when the movable patch is coupled to a fixed patch, the stake will be in a raised orientation and whereby when a user separates the movable patch from the fixed patch, the weight of the stake will lower the stake into a lower orientation into a sandy or rocky bottom.

The present disclosure relates to a drive arrangement for propelling a boat, for example a kayak, having an electric drive motor with a shaft, a receiving device for receiving the shaft and a holder for holding the receiving device on the boat. In some embodiments, the receiving device is pivotable for pivoting the electric drive motor between an operating position and a tilt position relative to the holder. A switchable fixing device is provided for fixing the receiving device in the operating position. The fixing device has an overload protection for disconnecting the fixing in the operating position when a predetermined pivot force in the direction of the tilt position is exceeded.

The disclosed invention includes a device that receives and supports one or more storage containers mounted to a water craft. The device includes a frame, secured to the water craft, that includes a center frame and one or more outer frames with a width and length equal to the width and length of one or more complimentary storage containers, which provide equal distribution of weight to the frame to balance and contribute to the buoyancy of the water craft. In some embodiments, the frame may be transformed into a table.

A kayak seat is provided that includes a seat base, and a seat pan supported by, and attached to, the seat base. The seat pan is made from a flexible material such that the seat pan is configured to be adjustable. The seat pan is configured to support the pelvis and thighs of a user seated in the seat pan. A seat back is attached to the seat base. A first adjustment mechanism is configured to adjust a position of the seat pan from a single point of adjustment. A second adjustment mechanism is configured to adjust a position of the seat back.

A monopod for mounting to the boat seat mount of a marine vessel, such as a bass boat or speed boat, which is capable of providing power for mobile accessories via a second monopod affixed to the navigation light port of the boat. The monopod is extendable to heights up to or exceeding eight feet (8′) above the deck of the boat, providing exceptional views for recording with a mounted camera while users participate in sports or other events within the boat. A release mechanism allows one portion of the monopod to telescope away from a second portion, thereby extending the monopod.

The present invention relates to a rowing seat (1) for rowing and kayaking boats and exercise equipment, comprising a first face (2) adapted to support and carry a user, a second face (3) arranged opposite the first face, a first end (4) and a second end (5), a first side (6) and a second side (7), and a longitudinal axis (8) extending between the first end and the second end, wherein the first face (2) comprises a middle section (9) arranged substantially between the first and second sides (6, 7) and extending from the first end (4) towards the second end (5) with a length of at least 8 cm, the middle section (9) having a substantially convex support face (10) extending along the longitudinal axis, the support face (10) being adapted to support at least 50% of the user's weight during use of the rowing seat. The present invention also relates to a rowing, kayaking or exercise system comprising a rowing seat according to the present invention.

Various aspects of a watercraft with a controllable imaging device are disclosed herein. The watercraft includes a rotatable housing provided in a recess located underneath the watercraft. The recess further includes a roller assembly to movably engage the rotatable housing within the recess. An imaging device is positioned within the rotatable housing. One or more control commands are received by the imaging device from an electronic device to enable capture of one or more images.

A watercraft and associated pedal drive system are provided. The pedal drive system allows for unassisted manual pedaling to provide thrust to the watercraft. The pedal drive system also provides on demand pedal assistance of varying levels via an assist drive train having an electric motor to supplement the manual pedal force input provided by a user at the pedals of pedal drive system.
