An adapter designed with and around chains, belts and gears connects to a conventional fishing reel to retrieve fishing line using foot pedal rotation. The pedals may be attached to a fighting chair that couples rotational energy from rotating pedals in only one direction to cause the fishing reel to retrieve line.

A marine data instrument mounting apparatus supports various components of a marine data instrument, for example a fishfinder or a chartplotter, on a portable frame for use in different environments. The apparatus has a frame that adjustably supports a display screen of the marine data instrument thereon so that height and/or angle of the screen is adjustable and that also supports a battery for powering the instrument. When the instrument is capable of sonar imaging, a sonar module for communicating sonar signals from a transducer head can also be supported on the frame together with the display unit and battery. A separate transducer mounting assembly suspends the transducer head from a pole in several different modes in cooperation with an indicator at an opposing end of the pole to indicate the selected mode of the transducer head.

A cushion storage device designed to engage with a secondary, independent structure, such as a cooler, to 1) allow for additional storage of items (independent of what may be stored in the independent structure), and 2) provide seating. When engaged with a cooler, an individual may store items inside of the cushion storage device and use the attached cushion storage device as a seat.
