FLOATING LOUNGE
A floating lounge having a substantially planar body portion has a middle area and an end area on each side of the middle area. A plurality of apertures located in the middle area extend through the body portion substantially perpendicular to the plane of the body portion. Additional apertures smaller than those in the middle area of the body portion may be arrayed in the outer areas of the lounge. When a user reclines on the lounge, the weight of the user, being greatest in the area of the hips, in combination with the apertures cause the middle area to sink into the water while the outer areas of the lounge are more buoyant.
1 . A floating lounge comprising:
a buoyant, substantially planar body portion having a middle area and an outer area on each side of the middle area;
a plurality of apertures located in said middle area and said outer areas and extending through said body portion substantially perpendicular to the plane of the body portion, the apertures being larger in the middle area of the body portion than in the outer areas.
2 . The floating lounge of claim 1 in which the width of the apertures decrease, the farther the apertures are from the middle portion.
3 . The floating lounge of claim 2 further comprising an inflatable headrest attached to the body portion.
4 . A floating lounge comprising an elongated, substantially rectangular planar body portion having a plurality of apertures therethrough, the apertures being larger in the middle area of the body than in the outer areas of the body portion along the longer dimensions of the rectangle.
5 . A floating lounge comprising an elongated, substantially rectangular planar body portion having a plurality of apertures therethrough in the middle area of the body portion along the longer dimensions of the rectangle so that the middle area has less buoyance that the other areas of the lounge.
