Abstract

An anchor covering assembly for cushioning a bow anchor on a boat when the boat is docked includes a plurality of mitts. Each of the mitts is positioned on an associated one of a plurality of protrusions on a bow anchor of a boat when the boat is docked. Additionally, each of the mitts is comprised of a resiliently compressible material to inhibit the protrusions on the bow anchor from injuring a passerby when the passerby strikes the protrusions.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An anchor covering assembly being configured to be positioned on a bow anchor of a boat thereby inhibiting the bow anchor from posing a striking hazard when the boat is docked, said assembly comprising:
 a plurality of mitts, each of said mitts being configured to be positioned on an associated one of a plurality of protrusions on a bow anchor of a boat when the boat is docked, each of said mitts being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein each of said mitts is configured to inhibit the protrusions on the bow anchor from injuring a passerby when the passerby strikes the protrusions; and   a plurality of cables, each of said cables being coupled between each of said mitts such that said plurality of mitts is coupled together, each of said cables consisting of one of rope and chain wherein each of said cables is configured to be resistant to damage by saltwater and freshwater.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein each of said mitts has a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending therebetween, said first end corresponding to each of said mitts being open wherein said first end corresponding to each of said mitts is configured to receive the associated protrusion. 
     
     
         3 . An anchor covering assembly being configured to be positioned on a bow anchor of a boat thereby inhibiting the bow anchor from posing a striking hazard when the boat is docked, said assembly comprising:
 a plurality of mitts, each of said mitts being configured to be positioned on an associated one of a plurality of protrusions on a bow anchor of a boat when the boat is docked, each of said mitts being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein each of said mitts is configured to inhibit the protrusions on the bow anchor from injuring a passerby when the passerby strikes the protrusions, each of said mitts having a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending therebetween, said first end corresponding to each of said mitts being open wherein said first end corresponding to each of said mitts is configured to receive the associated protrusion; and   a plurality of cushions, each of said cushions being positioned within said outer wall corresponding to an associated one of said mitts for cushioning the associated protrusion, each of said cushions being coextensive with said outer wall of said associated mitt.   
     
     
         4 . (canceled) 
     
     
         5 . An anchor covering assembly being configured to be positioned on a bow anchor of a boat thereby inhibiting the bow anchor from posing a striking hazard when the boat is docked, said assembly comprising:
 a plurality of mitts, each of said mitts being configured to be positioned on an associated one of a plurality of protrusions on a bow anchor of a boat when the boat is docked, each of said mitts being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein each of said mitts is configured to inhibit the protrusions on the bow anchor from injuring a passerby when the passerby strikes the protrusions, each of said mitts having a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending therebetween, said first end corresponding to each of said mitts being open wherein said first end corresponding to each of said mitts is configured to receive the associated protrusion;   a plurality of cushions, each of said cushions being positioned within said outer wall corresponding to an associated one of said mitts for cushioning the associated protrusion, each of said cushions being coextensive with said outer wall of said associated mitt; and   a plurality of cables, each of said cables being coupled between each of said mitts such that said plurality of mitts is coupled together, each of said cables consisting of one of rope and chain wherein each of said cables is configured to be resistant to damage by saltwater and freshwater.
