A mounting strip for installing utility lines and connecting links in a marine vessel comprising an elongate flexible strip having a planar base surface for mounting the strip along a boat surface, the strip having confronting lateral wall members extending along the strip, the lateral wall members having interior surfaces cooperating to define an elongate channel for receiving and protecting utility lines and connecting links deployed in the vessel.
A mounting strip for installing utility lines and connecting links in a marine vessel comprising an elongate flexible strip having a planar base surface for mounting the strip along a boat surface, the strip having confronting lateral wall members extending along the strip, the lateral wall members having interior surfaces cooperating to define an elongate channel for receiving, and protecting utility lines and connecting links deployed in the vessel, and the lateral wall members being flexible for engagement of said lines and links for retaining them within the channel.
A mounting strip for installing utility lines and connecting links in a marine vessel comprising an elongate flexible strip having a planar base surface for mounting the strip along a boat surface, the strip having confronting lateral wall members extending along the strip, the lateral wall members having interior surfaces cooperating to define an elongate channel for receiving, and protecting utility lines and connecting links deployed in the vessel, and the lateral wall members being flexible for engagement of said lines and links for retaining them within the channel.
A mounting strip for installing utility lines and connecting links in a marine vessel comprising an elongate flexible strip having:
- a planar base surface for mounting the strip along a boat surface, the planar base being defined by opposite lateral edges,
- a top surface that begins at opposite lateral edges and gradually rises in a curvilinear cross section toward the center of the strip to define a pair of curved, confronting flexible lateral walls,
- the lateral walls each rising from the base portion of the strip in an outer lateral wall surface that curves upwardly and inwardly toward the center of the strip,
- the lateral walls further having a cylindrical inner wall surface undercutting the lateral wall and extend downwardly toward the base of the strip,
- the lateral wall members having interior surfaces cooperating to define the elongate channel for receiving and protecting utility lines and connecting links deployed in the vessel, and the lateral wall members being flexible for engagement with said lines and links for retaining them within the channel.
A mounting strip for installing utility lines and connecting links in a marine vessel comprising an elongate flexible strip having a planar base surface for mounting the strip along a boat surface, the strip having a plurality of pairs of confronting lateral wall members extending along the strip, the pairs of confronting lateral wall members having interior surfaces cooperating to define an elongate channel for receiving and protecting utility lines and connecting links deployed in the vessel.
