Abstract: A beach cleaner for removing petroleum deposits. The cleaner comprises a cylinder, an endless belt with a protuberance pattern thereon surrounding the cylinder, a scraper bar mounted adjacent the protuberance pattern and a conveyor mounted adjacent the scraper bar. The cylinder is hollow and can be filled with liquid. The conveyor is driven by a power source and conveys debris sidewise to a collecting device. The beach cleaner is adapted to be mounted to a power unit such as a front end loader.
Abstract: An air aspiration prevention pan adapted to prevent aerated water from entering the intake of a water jet propulsion unit mounted in the hull of a water craft having low or zero dead rise characteristics or in a hull having sponsons or spaced apart skegs. The air aspiration prevention pan comprises sidewalls extending downwardly from the mounting means in a general V-configuration with the apex of the "V" toward the forward end of the hull. A lip extends outwardly from the bottom of the sidewalls and acts with them to confine and guide the aerated water under the hull so as to prevent a substantial portion of the aerated water from entering the intake of the water jet propulsion unit.
