Abstract
The watersports system comprises a floating, non-motorized watersports assembly (12) provided with an interface (30) for removable sealed assembly to a marine engine. The first floating watersports assembly includes an assembly interface (39) for assembly with a second floating watersports assembly. The watersports system comprises a second floating watersports assembly (14), comprising an assembly interface (37) for assembly with the first floating watersports assembly. Assembling the first floating watersports assembly and the second floating watersports assembly forms a second, floating craft (1) that can be sailed, propelled by an engine (2).
Claims15
A nautical system comprising:
- A first non-motorized, floating nautical assembly (12), —a removable watertight interface (30) for assembling the first floating nautical assembly to a personal watercraft, adapted so that the assembly of the first floating nautical assembly (12) and the personal watercraft forms a first navigable floating boat (31) propelled by a propulsion system of the personal watercraft,
- characterized in that the first floating nautical assembly (12) further comprises an interface (39) for assembling the first floating nautical assembly (12) to a second floating nautical assembly, in that the nautical system further comprises:
- A second floating nautical assembly (14) which is not intended to be used alone, comprising an interface (37) for assembly to the first nautical assembly, adapted so that an assembly of the first nautical assembly (12) and the second nautical assembly (14) forms a second navigable floating boat (1) propellable by a motor (2) that can be assembled to the second floating boat (1),
- and in that the first nautical assembly (12) includes a first upper deck surface (102),
- wherein the second floating nautical assembly (14) comprises a second upper deck surface (104), and
- wherein the second floating boat (1) comprises a continuous deck surface (10) formed by the juxtaposition of the first and second deck surfaces (102, 104).

A method of manufacturing a floating boat (1) wherein:
- a first, non-motorized, floating nautical assembly (12) is provided, comprising a removable watertight interface for assembly to a personal watercraft, adapted so that an assembly of the first floating nautical assembly (12) and the personal watercraft forms a first navigable floating watercraft propelled by a propulsion system of the personal watercraft, and including an interface for assembly to a second floating nautical assembly,
- a second floating nautical assembly (14) which is not intended to be used alone is provided, comprising an interface for assembly to the first nautical assembly, adapted so that an assembly of the first nautical assembly and the second nautical assembly forms a second motor-propelled navigable floating boat that can be assembled to the second floating boat,
- wherein the first nautical assembly (12) comprises a first upper deck surface (102), and the second floating nautical assembly (14) comprises a second upper deck surface (104),
- and wherein the first nautical assembly (12) and the second nautical assembly (14) are assembled, forming a continuous deck surface (10) formed by the juxtaposition of the first and second deck surfaces (102, 104).

A method of disassembling a floating boat (1), wherein:
- a floating boat (1) is provided, comprising a first nautical assembly (12) and a second nautical assembly (14) assembled together, the second nautical assembly (14) not being intended to be used alone, the first nautical assembly (12) comprising a first upper deck surface (102), and the second nautical assembly (14) comprising a second upper deck surface (104),
- the first non-motorized, floating nautical assembly (12) including a removable watertight interface for assembly to a personal watercraft, adapted so that an assembly of the first floating nautical assembly and the personal watercraft forms a first navigable floating boat propelled by a propulsion system of the personal watercraft, and comprising an interface for assembly to a second floating nautical assembly
- the second floating nautical assembly (14) comprising an interface for assembly to the first floating nautical assembly adapted so that an assembly of the first nautical assembly and the second nautical assembly forms said motor propellable seaworthy floating boat that can be assembled to the second floating boat, and forms a continuous deck surface (10) formed by the juxtaposition of the first and second deck surfaces (102, 104),
- the first and second floating nautical assemblies (12, 14) are disassembled from each other.
