Abstract: A mount to locate a marine bilge pump to increase serviceability, including an upper section which removably fastens to the bulkhead, stringer bed or deck brace of the boat, hinged to a center section which allows for angular orientation to be achieved with respect to a bottom section serving to support the bilge pump in a plane parallel with the bottom of the boat, and with the center section being extendable in length to set the spacing between the upper and bottom plates in accordance with the size of the bilge pump to be mounted. In the preferred embodiment described, the center section includes a slotted front piece to receive a tightenable knob which extends through and into one of a plurality of apertures in a second rear piece of the center section.

In the preferred embodiment described, the center section includes two or more sections nesting together, having a plurality of apertures in each, and in which the shafts of a pair of rotatable knobs are inserted through overlying apertures in alignment to set the length of the center section in accordance with the dimensions of the bilge pump to be supported between the upper and bottom plates.

Abstract: A water resistant, durable and foldable staging mat for organizing pressurized air-pak bottles for emergency firematic use incorporating rows of horizontally spaced-apart offset dividers extending above the mat surface in separating bottles as "filled" and "emptied", and with the mat being colored-coded and imprinted for ease in segregating the bottles in use.
