Abstract

A method to convert a jet board, which may include an electric surfboard, an electric standup paddle board, an electric hydrofoil board, into a personal watercraft (PWC). The method includes attaching an add-on module onto the jet board where the add-on module provides handles and a seat but does not provide a source of propulsion. The resulting personal watercraft is, instead. driven by the propulsion system of the jet board.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of converting a jet board into a personal watercraft, said method comprising:
 providing an add-on module;   detachably attaching and securing the jet board to the add-on module;   wherein the jet board has a lateral side;   wherein the jet board has an underside;   wherein the jet board has a top side;   wherein the jet board has a front end and a rear end;   wherein the jet board has an electric propulsion system;   wherein the add-on module has a hull;   providing at least one handle coupled to the hull;   wherein the add-on module has a front end and a rear end; and   wherein the jet board includes an electric surfboard, an electric boogie board, an electric standup paddle (SUP) board, or a hydro-foil board.   
     
     
         2 . The method as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the detachably attaching and securing step includes the jet board between a bottom side of the add-on-module and a holder, wherein the holder has a longitudinal axis that parallels with a longitudinal axis of the jet board. 
     
     
         3 . The method as recited in  claim 2 , wherein the detachably attaching and securing step includes moving the holder towards the bottom side of the add-on module and then lock into place. 
     
     
         4 . The method as recited in  claim 3 , wherein the add-on module has no electrically-powered parts. 
     
     
         5 . The method as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the add-on module has a holder, and wherein the detachably attaching and securing step includes using the holder to secure the jet board to the add-on module. 
     
     
         6 . The method as recited in  claim 5 , further comprising attaching the holder to a corresponding portion disposed at the jet board in order to keep the jet board from detaching from the add-on module. 
     
     
         7 . The method as recited in  claim 6 , wherein the holder has a pair of connecting part and a holding part, the connecting part is configured to connect to the bottom of the add-on module, the holding part is configured to hold the jet board in place to secure the jet board to the add-on module. 
     
     
         8 . The method as recited in  claim 7 , wherein the connecting part is arranged with a connecting hole, a screw bolt pass through the connecting hole and is installed to a corresponding portion at the bottom of the the add-on module to apply pressure to the jet board thereby holding the jet board in place towards the add-on module.
