Adjustable and extending transport cradle for watercraft

A cradle assembly for moving and positioning a watercraft with respect to a support module in a watercraft storage assembly, the watercraft including a bottom and a width, the cradle assembly comprising

• a plurality of horizontally adjustable cradle beams, each cradle beam including a left and a right side;
• a cradle wall vertically extending upward from each side of the cradle beam;
• first and second transportation tracks traversing the cradle beams substantially parallel to the cradle walls;
• and
• a transportation rail positioned on each transportation track to engage the bottom of the watercraft as the cradle assembly moves the watercraft with respect to the support module.

A cradle assembly for use in a watercraft storage system including a support wall, at least two watercraft support modules mounted and stacked in relationship to said support wall, the watercraft including a bottom and a width, the cradle assembly comprising:

• a plurality of horizontally adjustable cradle beams, each cradle beam including a left and a right side;
• a cradle wall vertically extending upward from each side of the cradle beam;
• first and second transportation tracks traversing the cradle beams substantially parallel to the cradle walls;
• a transportation rail slidably positioned on each transportation track to engage the bottom of the watercraft as the cradle assembly moves the watercraft with respect to the support module;
• a positioning system operatively connected to the transportation rail to extend a substantial portion of the transportation rail within the support module;
• a cradle beam adjustment system positioned to control the horizontal adjustment of the cradle beams and selectively horizontally space the transportation tracks relative to each other;
• a cradle clamp positioned on each cradle wall to selectively engage the support module during movement of the watercraft relative to the support module and restrict horizontal movement of the cradle assembly relative to the support module when engaged.
