Abstract: Various implementations include a seat riser system. The system includes a base and a seat. The base has a base center line, a first base end, a second base end spaced apart along the base center line, a first base side, and a second base side spaced apart from the first base side. The seat has a seat center line, a first seat end, a second seat end spaced apart along the seat center line, a first seat side, a second seat side spaced apart from the first seat side, and a bottom seat surface rotationally coupled to the base such that the seat is rotatable about a seat rotational axis. The seat rotational axis is spaced apart from the seat center line such that the seat rotational axis is closer to the first seat side than it is to the second seat side.

Abstract: Various implementations include a clamping storage device. The device includes a clamping assembly having a proximal stop, a gas spring, and a distal stop. The proximal stop extends along a proximal stop longitudinal axis. The gas spring has a gas spring longitudinal axis, first end, and a second end. The first end of the gas spring is coupled to the proximal stop. The distal stop is coupled to the second end of the gas spring and extends along a distal stop longitudinal axis. The proximal stop longitudinal axis and the distal stop longitudinal axis are both locatable in an assembly plane that incudes the gas spring longitudinal axis. The gas spring is biased toward an extended position and urgable toward a retracted state. The gas spring is movable toward the extended position in an unlocked state and is prevented from being moved toward the extended position in a locked state.

Abstract: Various implementations include a sports board storage device. The device includes a housing, one or more linkages, a foot, and one or more linkage members. The housing has a first prong and a second prong. The one or more linkages are pivotably coupled to the first prong. The foot is pivotably coupled to the one or more linkages. The one or more linkage members are coupled to at least one of the one or more linkages. The one or more linkage members are movable relative to the housing to cause rotation of the one or more linkages and to cause the foot to move between a retracted position and an extended position. The foot is closer to the second prong in the extended position than it is in the retracted position.

Abstract: A seat assembly includes: a backrest having a cushion surface formed on a first side of the backrest and support surface formed on a second side of the backrest; a first track assembly located along a first side of the backrest and a second track assembly located along a second side of the backrest; and a plurality of guide pins extending from the backrest into the first track assembly and the second track assembly such that the backrest is movable along the first track assembly and the second track assembly on the plurality of guide pins between a stowed position and a deployed position.

Abstract: A hinge assembly includes: a body; a first arm pivotally mounted on the body and movable between a first position and a second position, the first arm including a plurality of teeth formed thereon; a pawl mounted on the body proximate to a portion of the first arm, the pawl shaped to releasably engage the plurality of teeth of the first arm. In a collapsed position of the hinge assembly the pawl is disengaged from the plurality of teeth of the first arm such that the first arm is pivotable relative to the pawl. In a deployed position the pawl engages the plurality of teeth of the first arm to releasably secure the first arm in the second position.

Abstract: A mirror bracket is provided for supporting a mirror in deployed and stowed positions. The mirror bracket includes: a base; a mirror arm pivotally mounted on the base and movable between a deployed position and a stowed position; a first sloped surface of the mirror arm corresponding to the deployed position; a second sloped surface of the mirror arm corresponding to the stowed position; a pin movably mounted on the base and having a tapered end formed thereon, the pin located proximate to the mirror arm such that the pin contacts the first sloped surface when the mirror arm is in the deployed position and such that the pin contacts the second sloped surface when the mirror arm is in the stowed position.

Abstract: A folding bimini top frame includes: first frame associated with a second frame portion with a first latching hinge, the first latching hinge movable between a folded position and a deployed and locked position, the first latching hinge including a release lever for releasing the first frame from the deployed and locked position; a second latching hinge located between the second frame member and a base of the folding bimini top frame, the second latching hinge pivotable between a folded position and a deployed and locked position, the second latching hinge including a releasable latch for securing the second latching hinge in the deployed position; and a latch release mechanism in communication with the first latching hinge and the releasable latch of the second latching hinge, wherein the releasable latch of the second latching hinge is released by the latch release mechanism when the first frame portion is released from the deployed and locked position.

Abstract: A multi-linkage hinge assembly is provided for pivoting a seat cushion between flat and upright positions. The hinge assembly includes a base bracket, a seat bracket having a support surface, a front linkage member pivotally attached between the seat bracket and base bracket, a rear linkage assembly having a lower linkage member pivotally attached to an upper linkage member, and a tie linkage connecting the front linkage member to the rear linkage assembly. The tie linkage synchronizes movement of the front linkage and rear linkage assembly when the hinge is operated to move between an upright and flat position.

Abstract: Apparatus for a door for a boat's companionway hatch. The door includes a frame, a door, a drive mechanism, and a receiver. The drive mechanism moves the door between an open and closed position to selectively allow and block access to a bulkhead opening in the companionway. In the open position, the edge of the door is substantially parallel with the companionway sidewall. In the closed position the edge of the door engages the receiver and the edge is substantially parallel with the sidewall to which the receiver is attached. The drive mechanism includes a pair of struts that are driven by an actuator to move with a scissors-like motion. One end of each strut is fixed in position. The opposite end of each strut has a roller that moves within a slot, with one slot in the door and the other slot in the frame.
