A collapsible kayak may include a single-piece hull including a plurality of crease lines along which the hull is foldable. A removable floorboard lines a midship portion of the hull between a bow portion and a stern portion, the floorboard including a seat assembly and configured to be releasably retained by a pair of outboard walls permanently fixed at port and starboard sides of the cockpit. The stern portion of the hull is permanently folded in a V-shaped (AKA swallowtail) configuration to form a closed transom of the kayak. The bow, stern, and midship portions are configured as a tri-fold, such that the bow portion and the stern portion of the kayak are foldable toward each other to overlap the midship portion of the hull when collapsed.

A seating system for marine vessels including a seat back, a seat cushion, and a seat substructure. The seat substructure is disposed beneath and supports the seat cushion. The seat substructure includes bi-lateral curved tracks and the seat back is slidingly engaged with each of the bi-lateral curved tracks. A seat arm is attached to either side of said seat back, extending through said seat cushion and slidingly attached to a respective bi-lateral curved track. A friction-defeating traveler track can be attached to the seat arm and engages the track. The seat back is readily moveable along the bi-lateral curved tracks between at least a first position and a second position along said track. The seat can be translated along the tracks between at least the two positions with one hand without the need to release or lock any mechanism.

A modular seating assembly includes a top backrest portion, a seat support structure, and a bottom seating portion. The top backrest portion includes a backrest frame, a first backrest cushion, a backrest gap, and a second backrest cushion. The seat support structure includes a pair of supports connecting the top backrest portion and the bottom seating portion to one another to form the modular seating assembly. The bottom seating portion includes a seat apex section including the second backrest cushion, and a seat base section on which the seat apex section is disposed when the bottom seating portion is in a closed position. The seat apex section is configured to rotate away from the seat base section when the bottom seating portion is in an open position. The modular seating assembly includes a storage region formed within the bottom seating portion of the modular seating assembly.

An apparatus and methods according to the present invention provides a human powered catamaran-styled watercraft and methods of configuring and operating the watercraft. The watercraft generally comprises at least one hull in communication with a folding collapsible frame, wherein in the frame comprises a center rack pivotally joining hulls of hull sets to provide for common pivoting of the hulls during articulation of the watercraft, thereby the hulls and frame are in further communication through a at least one pivot pad which provides for slidable pivoting of the hulls during articulation of the watercraft. A method of folding and reversibly extending the watercraft to provide for optimized storage is provided. A method of operation of the watercraft to provide for articulation of the watercraft is provided.
