    摘要: The present invention relates to an improved fishing seat designed to be used on a boat. The fishing seat is configured to be attached to an interior of a boat, and in one potential embodiment to a shelf/inwale of the boat. The fishing seat features a substantially rectangular backplate that is attached to the shelf and is designed to laterally move along the shelf, thereby enabling the fishing seat to lock into a desired position at any forward, amidships or aft position. A seating platform extending orthogonally from the backplate (and accessible from three sides), is used for sitting by a user for an activity such as fishing. The fishing seat can be generally folded flat when not in use to save space. A supporting plate hingedly connects a base of the backplate and a bottom surface of the seating platform.

    摘要: Boats can include seating assemblies that can be configured in a variety of different arrangements. In one configuration of the seating assemblies described herein, a forward-facing seat and a rearward-facing seat are arranged back-to-back above a seat bottom. In another configuration, the seating assembly can be arranged as a forward-facing reclined seat such that a forward rotation of the forward-facing seat to a flat position with the seat bottom causes a rearward rotation of the rearward-facing seat to a reclined position. In still another configuration, the seating assembly can be configured form a reclined seat in a rearward-facing configuration.

    摘要: A roller mount for seats is used in connection with a boat and a seat. First and second base slides are mounted spaced apart on a base plate. The base slides have longitudinal rack gears. First and second top slides are mounted for linear movement on the base slides in a longitudinal direction, on a plurality of rollers. A top plate is mounted on the top slides to support the seat. First and second detent plates have longitudinal top rack gears, for selective releasable engagement with the base rack gears to preclude movement of the top slides. First and second locking bars extend longitudinally adjacent the base rack gears. The top rack gears include locking slots extending longitudinally for engagement with the locking bars, to guide the top rack gears into engagement with the base rack gears. The base rack gears and the top rack gears have teeth extending upward and inward at an angle with the base plane. The downward vector force created by the angle will eliminate backlash between the locking bar and the locking slot.

    摘要: A boat, having a transom, includes one or more aft-facing seats. Each aft-facing seat is positioned proximate to the transom and includes a seat bottom that is inclined at a downward angle in a direction extending from aft to fore, a seatback, a headrest, a seat support structure having at least one hidden compartment therein, and at least one pivot mechanism attached to the seatback and the headrest and configured to allow the seatback to move between a first position in which the seatback is capable of supporting the back of a person seated in the seat and a second position in which the seatback is pivoted upwardly to allow access to the compartment and the headrest to move between an upright position and a folded position. A plurality of handles may be provided for each aft-facing seat, with one at an outboard side and another at an inboard side.

    摘要: A boat including one or more seats, which may be aft-facing. The seat includes a seat bottom, which may be movable between a first position and a second position. The second position is a position in which the seat bottom is pivoted upwardly relative to the position of the seat bottom in the first position to allow access to a hidden compartment. The seat may also include a leg rest. The leg rest may extend aft of the transom, and may extend in a direction that is at a downward angle relative to the seat bottom. The leg rest may also have a length such that a gap is present between the leg rest and a surface beneath the leg rest.
