A seating assembly for a watercraft is provided. The watercraft has a deck including deck attachment features provided on an upper surface of the deck. The seating assembly includes: a padded mat for seating a user, the padded mat being configured to abut the upper surface of the deck, the padded mat having a mat attachment feature for selectively connecting the padded mat to the deck by engaging the mat attachment feature with one of the deck attachment features; and a backrest for supporting a back of the user, the backrest having a backrest attachment feature for selectively connecting the backrest to the deck by engaging the backrest attachment feature to an other one of the deck attachment features. The padded mat and the backrest are usable together to allow the user to sit on the padded mat and be supported by the backrest.

Watercraft hull

A garment and tether system is presented. The system includes a garment and tether. The garment includes: a garment body, and at least one electrical element connected to the garment body. The tether includes: a first end and a second end, at least one electrical conductor operatively connected between the first and second ends, and an electrical contact at the second end. The tether is connected to the garment at the first end, the second end being removably connectable to a base disposed on a vehicle. The base is adapted to provide power to the at least one electrical conductor of the tether via the electrical contact. The at least one electrical element is provided power from the vehicle via the tether.
