Abstract: A deck hatch assembly for marine craft is formed in the upper deck surface of the marine craft on the port and starboard sides. A submerged surface is integrally formed in the upper deck surface, being provided with a hatch opening surrounded by a raised peripheral ridge. The raised ridge, together with the submerged surface and the upper deck surface, forms a drain channel for directing water away from the stern of the marine craft. A pivotably mounted hatch cover is provided for normally sealing and closing off the hatch opening. The hatch cover may be raised upwardly from the bulkhead of the marine craft toward the stern for the purpose of providing ventilation to below deck compartments and for allowing access to the upper deck surface from below deck areas. A pair of gas spring assemblies is provided for positively and automatically retaining the hatch cover in the closed, or any one of a number of open positions.

Abstract: An alarm system used in conjunction with a circuit breaker panel box indicating the presence of an overload condition. At least one sensor is provided in proximity with the circuit breaker box but is not physically connected thereto. This sensor senses various parameters which are inherent in an overload condition or which are produced by various circuitry connected to the circuit breaker which are enabled during an overload condition. This alarm system is set by closing the door of the circuit breaker panel box.

Abstract: A blown circuit breaker indicator utilizing an illuminating device such as a light-emitting diode for indicating whether either a thermal electrical or magnetic circuit breaker has been tripped. The indicating device is provided in a circuit parallel to the main switch of the circuit breaker and includes a reactive element such as a capacitor.
