ABSTRACT:
A storage compartment for a collapsible boat canopy which folds to a horizontal position within the rear portion of the cockpit when not in use. The storage compartment is formed underneath the rear deck of the boat and has a forwardly facing opening closed by means of the rear passenger seat backrest, which is hingedly connected to the leading edge of the rear deck. The structural members for the canopy are supported within tracks on the cockpit side walls thereby permitting the entire canopy structure to be slid rearwardly so that the folded fabric portion is received within the storage compartment. The rear seat backrest is then swung downwardly over the opening and all but the vertical legs of the canopy structure is concealed. An upstanding ridge molded into the floor of the storage compartment serves to prevent the canopy from sliding forwardly.
