    摘要: A strap anchor for securing an accessory to a vehicle with a strap includes: a mounting portion including anchor base configured to engage an upper surface of an accessory receiving base connected to the vehicle and an anchor lock connected to the anchor base, the anchor lock being configured to be inserted through an aperture defined by the accessory receiving base; and a pivoting portion that is pivotably connected to the mounting portion about a pivot axis, the pivoting portion including a strap-receiving part configured for engaging the strap therewith. The strap anchor is configured to be removably fixed to the accessory receiving base by inserting the anchor lock through the aperture and turning the mounting portion such that the anchor lock is prevented from being extracted through the aperture. A method for securing an accessory to a vehicle using a strap anchor is also disclosed.

    摘要: A personal watercraft has a hull, a deck, a motor, a motor control unit operatively connected to the motor for controlling at least one parameter associated with the motor, a seat assembly including a seat portion selectively connected to the deck, and a raised seating system including a seat support selectively connected to the deck for selectively supporting the seat portion above the deck. A sensor is connected to at least one of the hull and the deck and is communicating with the motor control unit. In response to the seat support being connected to the deck, the sensor detects a presence of the seat support, and in response to the sensor detecting the presence of the seat support, the motor control unit limits at least one of the at least one parameter associated with the motor. A method for adjusting performance of a personal watercraft is also provided.
