Publication number: 20230406454Abstract: A moveable component assembly includes a seat assembly, a track system, and a locking mechanism that secures the seat assembly in position. The track system is coupled at least indirectly to the seat assembly and guides the seat assembly along a path between a first and second position. The seat assembly is secured in the second position when the seat assembly is disposed away from the deck's walking surface, thereby resulting in the components of the track system being frictionally coupled. A floor panel includes a locking mechanism and a series of alignment surfaces that guide the floor panel into position, which is secured by the locking mechanism.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Applicant: PB Holdco, LLC DBA Pursuit BoatsInventors: Linwood Addison Fuller, IV, Christopher M.

Patent number: 9688358Abstract: A sliding hatch for a boat including a vertical bulkhead and deck having an opening with vertical and horizontal sections defining a companionway for access to areas below the deck. A door is pivotally mounted to a bulkhead adjacent the vertical opening and movable for access to the vertical section of the companionway. A hatch is slideably mounted to the deck for selectively enclosing the horizontal section of the opening. Pivoted links couple the door to the hatch, such that, as the door is opened and closed, the hatch is moved between open and closed positions.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2015Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: S2 Yachts, Inc.Inventors: Linwood Addison Fuller, IV, Dwayne Back

Patent number: 9540077Abstract: A ladder assembly for mounting a concealed ladder to a boat includes a frame having a pair of spaced-apart guides. The frame is adapted to be mounted within a boat. A slide is movably mounted to the guides for sliding from one end of said frame to an opposite end, and a ladder is pivotally mounted to said slide, such that the ladder can extend from a hatch in the boat and be lowered for use of the ladder in entering and exiting the water from the boat. In one embodiment, a pivot plate is pivotally mounted to the slide and the ladder is pivotally mounted to the slide. A control arm is pivotally mounted to the pivot plate or slide and provides leverage for the easy deployment and storing of the ladder.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2015Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: S2 Yachts Inc.Inventors: Linwood Addison Fuller, IV, Dwayne Back

Patent number: 9003997Abstract: A vessel, including a transom for mounting outboard engines thereto, is spanned on opposite sides by aft-facing hull extensions which extend beyond the engines and allow a swim platform to be positioned between the hull extensions. The design allows the outboard engines to be covered with an engine cover, which provides an attractive vessel design in which the outboard engines can be concealed with a cover, which may serve other functions, such as a seat or the like. The cover houses an engine cowl mist shield which includes a support frame surrounding one or more outboard engines. The frame includes aperture(s) with edges spaced from the cowl and a flexible member extending from the edges to the cowl below the air intake of the cowl, such that spray and mist from the operation of the vessel does not reach the air intake of the cowl.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2012Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: S2 Yachts Inc.Inventors: Christopher M.
