Abstract
Apparatuses for protecting the gunnel of a boat are disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus may include a planar platform and a first panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform. The first panel may extend perpendicularly away from the planar platform. The apparatus additionally may include a second panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform. The second panel may extend perpendicularly away from the planar platform and may be parallel to the first panel. The first and second panels may define a gap therebetween sized to receive the gunnel or rail of the boat to allow the apparatus to be supported on the gunnel or rail of the boat.
Claims12
An apparatus for protecting the gunnel or rail of a boat, comprising:
- a planar platform;
- a first panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the first panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform;
- and
- a second panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the second panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform and being parallel to the first panel,
- wherein the first and second panels define a gap therebetween sized to receive the gunnel or rail of the boat to allow the apparatus to be supported on the gunnel or rail of the boat, wherein the first and second panels are positioned on the platform such that, when the apparatus is supported on the gunnel of the boat, the first and second panels contact opposed sides of the gunnel of the boat.
An apparatus for protecting the gunnel or rail of a boat, comprising:
- a planar platform;
- a first panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the first panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform;
- and
- a second panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the second panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform and being parallel to the first panel,
- wherein the first and second panels define a gap therebetween sized to receive the gunnel or rail of the boat to allow the apparatus to be supported on the gunnel or rail of the boat, wherein the first and second panels each includes a hole positioned to receive a single elongate pin.
An apparatus for protecting the gunnel or rail of a boat, comprising:
- a planar platform;
- a first panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the first panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform;
- and
- a second panel attached to, or formed with, the planar platform, the second panel extending perpendicularly away from the planar platform and being parallel to the first panel,
- wherein the first and second panels define a gap therebetween sized to receive the gunnel or rail of the boat to allow the apparatus to be supported on the gunnel or rail of the boat, wherein the platform includes a plurality of mortises and one or both the first and second panels includes a plurality of tenons that correspond to the plurality of mortises.
