Abstract
Disclosed are devices for attaching a seat to a stand-up paddleboard. The devices generally have an open “C”-shape that is designed and configured to accommodate the side rail of a stand-up paddleboard while maintaining flush contact with at least a portion of the bottom of the stand-up paddleboard. The present disclosure also relates to a system for attaching a seat to a stand-up paddleboard. The system includes the above-described device and a mechanism for connecting the device to a seat disposed on the stand-up paddleboard. The mechanism for connecting the device to a seat can be, for example, a strap or a hook. The connecting device can be varied to accommodate the location on the seat to which the connecting device is attached.

A device for attaching a seat to a stand-up paddleboard, the device having a generally open “C”-shaped configuration comprising:
- a first end and a second end having a total length therebetween, wherein the total length comprises:
- a first length starting at and comprising the first end connected to a second length through a first radius;
- the second length connected to a third length through a second radius;
- the third length connected through a third radius to a fourth length ending at and comprising the second end,
- wherein the first radius provides a substantially 90° angle between the first length and the second length, wherein the second radius provides an obtuse angle between the second length and the third length, and wherein the third radius provides an obtuse angle between the third length and the fourth length.
A system for attaching a seat to a stand-up paddleboard, the system comprising:
- a device having a generally open “C”-shaped configuration comprising:
- a first end and a second end having a distance therebetween, wherein the distance comprises:
- a first length starting at and comprising the first end connected to a second length through a first radius;
- the second length connected to a third length through a second radius;
- the third length connected through a third radius to a fourth length ending at and comprising the second end,
- wherein the first radius provides a substantially 90° angle between the first length and the second length, wherein the second radius provides an obtuse angle between the second length and the third length, and wherein the third radius provides an obtuse angle between the third length and the fourth length;
- and
- a connecting device attached to the device proximal the second end.
