Abstract: An adjustable shade system for a boat is disclosed. The shade system includes at least one canvas and at least one pole, for example, an outrigger pole. The at least one canvas is secured to the at least one pole using at least one attachment point. In addition, the shade system includes at least one pivoting connection. The pivoting connection is coupled to a mounting surface and to the first end of the at least one pole. The pivoting connection is adapted to selectively cause the at least one pole to rotate in at least one rotational direction relative to the mounting surface.

Abstract: An outrigger clamp to couple together two or more nestable tubes. The clamp includes a guide for retaining filament, and an attachment point for receiving accessories without interfering with the filament and guides. The guide and attachment point can rotate about an axis based on the forces applied to the outrigger to better align the filament and guides, and therefore align the forces applied to the outrigger and filament. The retainer can be, for example, one or more rollers that help prevent the filament from becoming creased or kinked during use.

Abstract: A motorwell throughhull is disclosed having a central portion for threadably receiving end caps or securements thereon. The central portion is sizable, such as by being formed of a material that is easily cut such as plastic. The end caps may be formed of metal to provide a desirable aesthetic appearance.

Abstract: A water intake device is disclosed for mounting on a boat hull so that at least a peripheral portion water-side face thereof is substantially flush with an exterior surface of the boat hull. The water intake device includes a plate or screen having the water-side face and having a plurality of througbores for water uptake. The throughbores are obliquely angled with respect to the water-side face to promote water intake, and preferably are angled at approximately 20 degrees.
