This invention relates to a vessel having an extendable and retractable cursor frame assembly for deploying other vessels into a body of water. The retractable cursor frame assembly on the main vessel may be retracted and secured on a module of the main vessel as the main vessel is in transit. When another vessel is to be deployed into the body of water from the main vessel, the cursor frame assembly is then extended into the body of water to facilitate the launch of the other vessel.

A modular swim platform assembly is for a boat. The assembly has a deck that is movable relative to the boat into and between a retracted position and an extended position, wherein the deck is located closer to the boat in the retracted position than the extended position. The deck has a base platform and a submersible platform, the submersible platform being movable out of the extended position while the base platform remains in the extended position, and particularly wherein the submersible platform is movable out of the extended position to a deployed position that is below the base platform.
