Abstract
A watercraft has a collapsible privacy compartment that accommodates an adult when the compartment is opened. The privacy compartment includes a cover that is movably connected to the deck and a flexible curtain that is connected to the cover. When the privacy compartment is closed, the cover at least partially conceals the privacy compartment within the deck. When the privacy compartment is opened, the cover at least partially supports the deployed privacy compartment. The cover may simultaneously function as an engine cover.
