RAKE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REMOVING UNDERWATER VEGETATION

摘要

A rake system for removing underwater vegetation comprising aplate assembly, a handle assembly, and a line. The plate assemblycomprises first and second engaging members each defining an engagingedge. The handle assembly is attached to the plate assembly. The line isattached to the handle assembly. During use, the user grips the handleassembly to toss the plate assembly to a first underwater location. Theuser then pulls the line to displace the plate assembly from the firstunderwater location along a harvest path. The engaging edges of theengaging members are adapted to engage the underwater vegetation tofix the underwater vegetation relative to the plate assembly such thatcontinued pulling on the line removes the underwater vegetation in aharvest region defined by the harvest path.
