A dock stabilizing pile guide device includes a frame attached to a floating dock and enclosing a respective piling. The frame carries a plurality of rollers that rotatably interengage the piling and guide the dock upwardly and downwardly along the piling as the depth of the underlying water changes.

A watercraft includes a deck, a hull supporting the deck, and a barrier structure. The barrier structure includes: a frame connected to at least one of the deck and the hull and at least partially surrounding a portion of the deck; and a pliable sheet wall connected to the frame. The frame includes an upper portion including a rail for grabbing by a user's hand; and a lower portion connected to the at least one of the deck and the hull. The lower portion and the upper portion are connected to one another. The pliable sheet wall is stretched across at least a portion of the frame so as to extend between the upper and lower portions of the frame. A barrier structure is also contemplated.

A jet pump assembly includes a marine engine, a jet drive and a shield adapted to be secured to a transom of a watercraft. The shield has arms to which the marine engine is secured and legs to which an intake mount is secured. The jet drive is supported by the intake mount. The shield has at least one flange adapted to be secured to a middle toon of a pontoon boat. The shield covers an opening in the middle toon through which the marine engine is passed during assembly. A gasket between the shield and opening prevents water from entering the middle toon.

A flexible dock connector for connection between two floating dock structures. In example forms, the flexible dock connector includes a first eye bolt, a second eye bolt, a dampening material and a pair of plates. The first and second eye bolts include an eye portion and a bolt portion extending from the eye portion. The eye portions of the first and second eye bolts are coupled together, and the dampening material substantially covers the eye portions of the first and second eye bolts. The pair of plates each include a central opening for receiving the bolt portions of the first and second eye bolts, respectively, and wherein the dampening material is generally sandwiched between the pair of plates.

A pontoon boat is provided that includes at least two pontoons running longitudinally beneath the boat and providing buoyancy thereto; a deck framework mounted above and connected to the pontoons; a deck mounted on the deck framework; a recessed deck portion extending downwardly through the deck and the deck framework, the recessed deck portion forming a cavity into the deck including a bottom and side walls forming a basin extending into and beneath the deck; and at least one seat adjacent the recessed deck portion and mounted to the deck.
