Abstract: An illuminated sign (10) that produces a luminescent display that is especially suitable for attachment to an article of clothing such as a jacket (60) or cap (70). The sign (10) consists of an electroluminescent lamp (12) that produces a luminescent cool light, in either, white, yellow or green/blue, that is visible through the openings of an indicia stencil (26) affixed to the front of the lamp (12). The lamp is encapsulated in a film (24) that is further protected by a sign protecting cover (28) having an opening (30) into which is inserted the stencil (26). The signs power circuit consists of an inverter (46) that is powered by a battery (44). The inverter produces an output of 140-volts a-c at 400 Hz that is applied directly to the input of the electroluminescent lamp (12) and that is controlled by a power switch (48).

Abstract: A utility saddlebag which has a top (20), sides (26), and ends (30) and (32), of woven fabric attached together by seams of thread configured to cover the engine compartment enclosure of a jet-propelled watercraft. The saddlebag is held in place by the use of an elastic member (36) sewn into a bead on the skirt or periphery of the device allowing it to be stretched over and held in place by tucking the ends under the edges of the housing. A number of pockets (28) on the sides and on the rear (34) provide storage compartments, and a strap (40) assures closure on the sides. The invention provides storage for a watercraft, without any modification or alteration heretofore unavailable.
