A method for providing lighting to a boat surface comprising providing an LED light source in a transparent disk and placing the disk on the boat surface in a location where the boat accessory is to be mounted with the disk fastener openings aligned with the boat surface openings. The method includes connecting a power source to the light source, placing the boat accessory on the transparent disk with the boat accessory fastener openings aligned with the disk fastener openings and inserting the at least one fastener through the boat accessory openings, disk openings and boat surface openings. The fastener secures the boat accessory and disk to the boat surface wherein the transparent disk bears the weight of the boating accessory. Upon providing power to the light source, light travels from the light source to the circumferential edge of the transparent disk, illuminating the area adjacent the boating accessory.

An anchor and anchoring system for securing items such as deck furniture to a surface, such as a deck surface. An anchor of the invention comprises an elongate body, a tightening element, and an optional load spreader. The elongate body of the anchor may comprise a lower elongate member having an upper surface, and a feature for tightening the upper elongate member surface against the bottom of a deck board. The lower elongate member passes through an opening between deck boards, is rotated and is then tightened against a lower surface of the deck boards. An anchoring system of the invention may comprise one or more anchors attached to an item to be secured to a deck by one or more tensioning members having a first end attached to an anchor attachment member and having a second end attached to an attachment member on the item to be secured.

A seat is designed for use in a boat and extends in a vertical height direction, a lateral width direction, and a depth direction perpendicular to the width direction. The seat includes a pan main body extending in at least the width direction and the depth and a back main body coupled to the pan main body and extending in at least the width direction and the height direction. The pan main body and/or the back main body is formed from a single extrusion having a uniform cross section in one if the height, width, and depth directions. The pan main body and/or the back main body has an open profile when viewed in the one of the height, width, and depth directions. The open profile is configured to accept and hold a further seat component therein.
