    Abstract: A system for a marine vessel propelled by a propulsion device includes a controller operable in an automatic navigation mode in which the controller automatically controls a thrust of the propulsion device to propel the marine vessel through a body of water. A portable device is carried on an individual on the marine vessel. The controller enables a person overboard detection algorithm in response to enablement of the automatic navigation mode. The person overboard detection algorithm disables the automatic navigation mode in response to detecting a given status of the portable device.

    Abstract: A lockable connecting ring includes a first assembly and a second assembly connected to the first assembly. Two opposite ends of a rod body of the first assembly have a male linking portion and a female lockable portion, respectively. Two opposite ends of a rod body of the second assembly have a male lockable portion and a female linking portion, respectively. The male linking portion is pivotally connected to the female linking portion, and the female lockable portion is detachably connected to the male lockable portion by screwing. When the threaded connection of the lockable connecting ring is unlocked, the lockable connecting ring could be rotated along the pivotal connection to form an opening for allowing the rope to fit around the lockable connecting ring. Then, the female lockable portion is connected to the male lockable portion by screwing again to close the lockable connecting ring, which is convenient for use.
