The mount can secure to the sports board via an attachment device such as an embedded plug. The mount can be placed at the front or rear of the sports board. Furthermore, the mount can be configured to face either forwards or backwards to capture images and / or video from different viewpoints while participating in the board activity. Moreover, the mount includes a pivoting joint to allow a user to rotate the camera either upward or downward and then secure the camera at a fixed angle to capture images and / or video from different angles.

A wind turbine (1) has a base (5) divided into at least three ballast tanks (12). A vessel (7) has means for displacing the wind turbine between a loading space (25) and an unloading position (26). At its unloading position the vessel has winches (11) with at least three flexible lines (10) that can be connected with horizontally distanced lifting points (23) on the wind turbine base.

A bracket for holding accessories on a boat includes a pair of mounting plates which are laterally spaced apart from one another and interconnected by a plurality of threaded screws and wing nuts, wherein the mounting plates have a set of aligned open through surfaces through which the screws extend and are retained by the nuts. Connected between the plates to the screw are a set of interconnecting plates which form a slot therebetween to removably receive a support plate which is configured to attach to an accessory. Each screw has a plastic sleeve thereabout serving as a spacer between one of the mounting plates and the remaining interconnecting plates and wherein each spacer is approximately the width of a rail of a boat.

A height adjustable tower and cargo rack apparatus for wakeboard boats and the like, the apparatus including: a tower base rigidly attached to a boat gunwale, the tower base having a powered actuator; vertical supports extending from the tower base and pivotally operated by the powered actuator; a pivotally adjustable cargo rack apparatus supported by the vertical supports; and, a height adjustable upper tower section which is pivotally supported by the vertical supports and which adjustably supports the cargo rack apparatus. The multiplicity of adjustable and pivotal features work in conjunction with each other to maximize the unique functionality of the instant apparatus.

A cargo rack apparatus for removable attachment to a boat, such as to the vertical supports of a wakeboard boat tower. One embodiment includes one or more peripheral rails defining front, back, and side walls, and an interior volume, and one or more crossmembers between walls to provide a support surface for stored items. The apparatus can be attached to the vertical supports of the boat tower by releasable connectors or mounts at a plurality of points, and can subsequently be easily and completely removed from the tower. Upon release of only some of the connectors, the rack pivots relative to the tower to enable the storage area of the rack to be brought closer to the user, making it easier to load and unload cargo. The entire rack can also pivot and fold down with the boat tower for storage, towing, and areas of limited clearance. An alternate embodiment provides a sliding arrangement so that the rack apparatus slides longitudinally on one or more of its rails or sides relative to the mount, and can pivot downwardly at any point during or at the end of the sliding displacement.

An embodiment of a transport platform has a platform having first and second end members in which spaced vertically extending first slots are formed, the first slots being adapted to receive one of a plurality of vertically extending guide members that are provided on bulkheads of a container ship hold. The transport platform also has first and second sets of vertically extending pillars which are respectively provided at first and second ends of the platform. First and second cross members respectively interconnect the upper ends of the first and second set of pillars. The first and second cross members each having spaced vertically extending second slots that are aligned with the vertically extending first slots and which are adapted to receive the vertically extending guide members which are formed on the bulkheads of the container ship hold.

A hatch assembly for a boat including a contiguous seating area across a stern of the boat. The contiguous seating area includes a main portion and at least one removable portion that can be removed to provide access to an entryway to a deck of the boat. The boat also includes a base pivotally attached to a boat deck, whereby the base can pivot between an open position and closed position to provide access to a power source within a boat hull. The base defines a storage bin with a compartment for storage. A lid pivotally attaches to the base, whereby the lid can pivot from an open position to a closed position to provide access to the storage bin. A seat attaches to the lid and is supported by the base. A backrest pivotally attaches to the base and pivots between a sitting position and a reclining position.

A plastic molded, sit-on-top kayak of unique size and shape is disclosed with various components which provide multi-purpose usage. The kayak is especially useful for multi-purposes such as sailing kayak surfing, scuba diving, paddling, touring and electric motorized usage. The kayak has attachment points integrally molded that provide for these multi-purposes. An important component of the invention includes a removable backrest that additionally provides secure waterproof storage of the operator's personal items. The backrest can be easily removed and reattached securely in place when desired. The ability to easily remove a backrest or backpack option also enables a desirable compact capability for transportation and storage by a user. Additional benefits of this feature provide for a smaller profile for packaging and commercial transportation. The kayak as disclosed may be formed for the most part, typically by blow molding, rotational molding, injection molding, rim molding, fiberglass and thermoforming, and by using a wide variety of polymer materials that may be suitable.

A marine vessel, and a system and method of using the marine vessel, to facilitate the introduction of bulk liquid commodities, such as LNG, into the established and extensive worldwide intermodal transportation system, which is based on containerized shipments. The marine vessel is a specialized vessel, of either ship or barge form, that is capable of holding a large number of ISO-sized intermodal LNG tanks and is configured so as to have at one and the same time characteristics of both a tanker vessel (e.g., a gas carrier) and a container vessel. The intermodal LNG tanks connect to a piping system of the marine vessel and are thereby interconnected in such a manner that allows the interconnected intermodal LNG tanks to behave as if they constitute a typical LNG vessel bulk liquid tank to facilitate efficient loading at a typical marine LNG terminal. The containerized intermodal LNG tanks are capable of discharging liquids to a marine terminal as if in a bulk mode, or of being disconnected from the common interconnection system to allow lift-off discharge of the intermodal LNG tanks at a typical cargo container port so that the intermodal LNG tanks can enter the existing intermodal transportation system for further distribution to the end user by other marine vessels, over-the-road truck, or by rail.

The boat storage container unit is adapted to be supported on a boat. The boat storage container unit has a support unit and a container sized and shaped to store fishing tackle, tools and the like and adapted to slide onto the support unit. The support unit has a vertical support member, an attachment device for attaching the vertical support member to a boat, a base and a connection device at one end of the base to pivotally connect the base to the vertical support member. The connection device is adapted to permit the base to be moveable from a vertical position to a retainable horizontal position. A top surface of the base and a bottom surface of the container have inter-engaging means to permit the container to slide onto and be retainer on the base.
