Definitions

  • the invention relates to a watercraft with a watercraft lift or a watercraft staircase according to the preamble of the first claim.
  • Watercraft lifts for swimmers or tender are known to transport people or dinghies more comfortably and safely into or out of the water, as described in the DE 199 63 057 C1 or WO 03/106254 A1 ,
  • the WO 2007/087736 A1 describes a variable support platform for a watercraft. This has a platform which can be held over a support and pivot arms and moved up and down.
  • the invention is based on the object in a vessel equipped with a watercraft lift or watercraft stairs and a movable buoyancy body fuselage element to connect both so that on the one hand the hull of the vessel is extended, on the other hand, the buoyancy body hull element supports the watercraft lift or the watercraft stairs with its buoyancy.
  • trim of the craft when loaded at the stern is also enhanced by the added static or dynamic buoyancy without compromising the path for lowering the watercraft lift or the watercraft stairway by folding the buoyant body hull member away.
  • Watercraft lifts are becoming more and more popular, as they allow dinghies and jet skis to be taken in elegantly and efficiently, or they can be launched simply and easily.
  • lifts or a corresponding lowerable stairs are also used for people like, especially in larger yachts, where the way from board to or from the water means appropriate distances.
  • the photographs of dinghies overhanging the stern of the vessel are a burden for the watercraft mirror and also leads to a whitewash of the entire vessel, as well as the parking position of a weighty dinghy outside the rear of an extremely unfavorable weight distribution for the entire vessel, especially during the acceleration until the sliding phase and at the same time a permanent load on the tail structure, especially in waves due to the fluctuating dynamic forces, which triggers such a dinghy and the lift itself at this exposed point.
  • the invention solves several points of conflict in that the watercraft lift below the platform has a corresponding rotatably mounted buoyancy body hull attached to the stern of the craft, which extends downstream and thus advantageously below the platform, with the platform and the buoyant body body connected together by a connecting means, thus the load on the transom is reduced or eliminated by the buoyancy of the buoyant body hull element.
  • This additionally ensures that not the entire weight of the lift the Liftbefest Trentsträgem the tail part loads, but a part of the load on the attachment to the trunk end, respectively.
  • rotatably mounted on the lower rear part of the vessel buoyancy body hull element this is additionally supported there.
  • the trim of the watercraft itself can be adjusted at any time and precisely with the buoyant body hull element while driving. Correct trimming is not only a visual concern, but also significantly improves the speed of the vessel, reduces fuel consumption and makes the hull of the vessel softer into the waves. All these technical and hydrodynamic advantages due to the buoyant body hull element in no way limit the stroke of the watercraft lift or the watercraft stairs, as this is folded away as needed.
  • the essence of the invention is to support a buoyancy body hull rotatably mounted at the stern of a craft and mechanically connected to a watercraft lift or watercraft stairway to support the watercraft lift or watercraft staircase at the tail end by a static and dynamic buoyancy, thereby enhancing the trim of the craft thereby restricting the stroke of the watercraft lift or watercraft stairs by the buoyancy body fuselage element is folded away when needed.
