Power attachment for a boom for water sports

摘要

A powered boom assembly for water skiing, particularly for barefoot skiing, allows boat personnel to activate a switch to automatically change the position of the boom while the boat is operating and while the skier is using the boom. The assembly includes a powered linear actuator which is attached by a bracket to the pylon of the motor boat. A fitting on the actuator is used to mount the boom, the fitting may also be attached to the pylon, so that the fitting and boom move up and down when the actuator is activated by the switch. A bracket securely attaches the actuator to the boom.
