A modular interlocking flotation assembly for selective creation of a raft includes a plurality of shells. Each of a plurality of couplers is coupled to a respective shell so that the shells of the plurality of shells are selectively interconnectable in a substantially planar configuration. The plurality of shells thus interconnected is configured to function selectively a raft and a portable dock.

A water mat assembly having selectively attachable modular panels is disclosed. The water mat comprises a buoyant solid core insert that is inserted into a sleeve made of fabric. The sleeve may be couple to other sleeves to form an assembly of floating panels. The end panels may have grommeted ports for tethering the mat assembly to a dock or water vehicle.

A frame for a top of a boat that can be moved between a deployed position and a collapsed position with the aid of an articulated top assist mechanism such that the manual effort required to move the top between the collapsed position and deployed position is minimized or eliminated. The articulated top assist mechanism has a torque hub attached to a frame element of the top and a spring that applies torque to the hub by a strap attached to the hub and the spring.

A valve assembly for an inflation system that includes a pressure relief valve and a vent valve. The pressure relief valve has a pressure relief housing and a pressure relief valve poppet. The pressure relief housing defines a first pressure relief cavity that is disposed between a first end wall defining a first flow port and a first wall defining a passageway and a second pressure relief cavity disposed between the first wall and a second wall. The pressure relief valve poppet is movably disposed within the first pressure relief cavity and the second pressure relief cavity. The vent valve has a vent housing and a vent valve poppet. The vent housing defines a vent cavity that is disposed between the second wall defining a vent flow port and a second end wall. The vent valve poppet is movably disposed within the vent cavity.

A tent is designed for use in the air, connected at its vertices to trees or the like. The tent is further designed with enough support from an independent support structure to create a shelter there-in while in the air or on the ground. Further, the tent is built atop a floating mat or base. In order to provide enough strength to the base that it can be used to float the entire tent or hold the tent airborne, straps extend from each vertex of the mat through a central portal and connect back to themselves. From these straps, loops are further created to attach the tent, by way of the loops, to trees while the entirety of the mat is buoyant enough to hold the tent and people there-in afloat.
