Abstract: Described is a submersible floor or deck deployable in swimming pools and spas. The floor and seat panels are assembled and deployed in the basin or pool. The floor is mounted to a scaffolding and can be moved reversibly by a water pump or a hydraulic actuator between a lowered state substantially parallel to a floor of the pool and a raised state that is substantially flat and horizontal at a level substantially even with a top edge of the pool or spa. One version uses water flow from an existing or conventional water pump to circulate water that impinges on a paddlewheel that, in turn, drives one or more vertically mounted screws. The screws provide the vertical motive force to the floor.

Abstract: A vehicle mounted securing system is described. A rack is secured to the vehicle. Oblong slots formed in the rack provide a variety of locations at which to secure items to the racks. Brackets, strap mounts and the like are easily and removably attached to the rack by specially shaped disks or pucks which fit within the contours of a slot. Items may be secured by one or more bracket-puck combinations inside or outside of the vehicle.
