Wind deflection apparatus, a console comprising the wind deflection apparatus, and a boat comprising the wind deflection apparatus

1. A wind deflection apparatus configured to be mounted to a watercraft, comprising:

a fairing shaped to comprise a leading edge profile that is configured to cooperate with a side profile of a console to redirect an oncoming airflow laterally away from an occupant positioned behind the console;

a mounting apparatus configured to secure the fairing relative to the console;

wherein the mounting apparatus comprises a bracket configured to secure the fairing to the console; and

wherein the bracket comprises a post clamp configured to secure the fairing to a post of the console.

2. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the fairing comprises a transparent material.

3. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the fairing comprises a material comprising a tensile strength of at least 8000 psi (55.2 MPa) and a modulus of elasticity of at least 300000 psi (2,100 MPa) as determined by ASTM Method D638.

4. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the fairing comprises acrylic, glass, aluminum, carbon fiber, or fiber glass.

5. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the fairing comprises a first end, a second end, and a panel therebetween, wherein the panel comprises a width dimension that tapers from the first end to the second end.

6. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a brace configured to secure the fairing to the bracket, wherein the brace clamps the fairing therein.

7. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the mounting apparatus is configured to support the fairing when redirecting the oncoming airflow flowing at up to 100 miles per hour.

8. A watercraft console comprising the post and the wind deflection apparatus of claim 1 .

9. A watercraft comprising the watercraft console of claim 8 .

10. The watercraft console of claim 8 , wherein the post is disposed at a downstream end of the console relative to a bow-to-stern axis of the console; and wherein the mounting apparatus is configured to secure the fairing to the post.

11. The watercraft console of claim 8 , wherein the post defines a post profile; wherein the mounting apparatus is configured to secure the fairing to the post; and wherein the leading edge profile also proceeds and recedes with the post profile along a bow-to-stern axis of the console.

12. The watercraft console of claim 8 , further comprising a center console boat comprising the console.

13. A wind deflection apparatus, comprising:

at least one fairing configured to be secured proximate to a downstream end of a console relative to a bow-to-stern axis of the console;

wherein a shape of the fairing cooperates with a side profile of the console to redirect an oncoming airflow laterally away from an occupant positioned behind the console; and

wherein the at least one fairing is configured to be secured to a post of the console.

14. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 13 , where a shape of a top of the at least one fairing cooperates with a shape of an underside of a top of the console.

15. The wind deflection apparatus of claim 13 , wherein fairing comprises a transparent material.
