ABSTRACT:
This invention pertains to novel water craft, having novel standoff assemblies. The standoff assemblies prevent the water craft from being driven with destructive force into a dock or other relatively immobile object above the outer edges of the water craft. The standoff assemblies of the invention extend upwardly from the outer edge of the water craft. Adjustably extensible support members mount the standoff assembly to the water craft at typically three mounting loci. The mounting loci are typically spaced both vertically and laterally from each other.
