Patent attributes
An inflatable boat platform floatation device having a “T” or “U” shaped opening in the front surface that receives the motor(s) and wraps around the motor(s) and sides of a boat allowing the front surface to engage the transom and side surfaces forming the opening at the front surface to engage the sides of the boat near the stern such that the platform rests against the boat in a manner that shields the propeller(s) from ropes, debris, hands and feet while providing a platform for the passengers outside the boat. The platform has top and bottom surfaces that are connected by stitched polyester fibers (“SPF”) which hold the surfaces together and determine the platform's thickness when inflated and keep the surfaces uniform and rigid when the platform is inflated. The upper surface includes at least one ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) pad. The platform further includes a plurality of handles, at least one inflation and deflation valve and a plurality of D-rings for securing the platform to a boat and tethering other platforms or tethering other watercraft to the platform.
