  • Under-deck mounted retractable diving board
    Patent number: 4971315
    Abstract: A retractable diving board which is mounted on the underside of a platform or deck, preferably in the front of a pontoon boat, so it may also serve as a gangplank. The under-deck mounting of the retractable diving board leaves the deck surface uncluttered and available for other uses, and is also safer for passengers. The retracted diving board can be locked for added safety when the pontoon boat is unattended.
