The invention relates to an interface for mounting a propulsion mechanism to a watercraft such as a fishing kayak, and to a watercraft comprising such an interface. The interface comprises a first portion including a first plate with a hole sized and shaped for receiving therethrough a portion of the propulsion mechanism, a second portion including a second plate and one channel extending from the second plate, the channel being in registry with the hole of the first portion for therein a portion of the propulsion mechanism. The interface also comprises fastening assemblies for removably fastening the second portion to the first portion of the interface, and a guiding assembly for maintaining the channel of the second portion in registry with the hole of the first portion.

A rowing machine convertible for use both indoors and outdoors. In the outdoor mode, the rowing machine is configured for adaptation to a watercraft, such as a kayak or stand up paddle board (SUP). A rower operating the rowing machine pulls on a rope or cord to cause paddles positioned at the rearward end of the machine to rotate and move the machine on a body of water. In the indoor mode, legs are attached to the machine for placement on a rigid surface. The paddles are placed in a container holding fluid.

A propulsion assembly utilizes at least one fluid propulsion chamber operationally attached or mounted to a vessel. Each fluid propulsion chamber generally comprises an outer housing and an inner sleeve; the outer housing is slidably disposed relative to the inner sleeve. Each inner sleeve further includes at least one water intake vent or aperture, and at least one outlet nozzle or jet. Pedal assemblies are moveably mounted within elongated slots or apertures extending through the vessel. A linkage assembly operationally connects the pedals to the at least one fluid propulsion chamber. Force imparted on said pedals (such as by the legs/feet of a user) is transferred to the fluid propulsion chambers by said linkage assembly to generate positive thrust to propel the vessel.
