An apparatus for adjustably securing a boat accessory to a boat. A first member has a plug and a second member has a socket. The plug has a rosette shape with rounded protrusions and the socket has a corresponding mating shape. Both the plug and the socket have openings for a fastener to secure the plug in the socket. The first member is one of a mounting base and an accessory base, and the second member is the other one. In one embodiment, an extension is positioned adjacent the plug so as to separate the first and second members. In another embodiment, the extension has a plug on each end and the first and second members have sockets. In another such embodiment, the extension has two members joined with a rosette-shaped plug and socket.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for adjustably connecting a boating accessory to a watercraft, said apparatus comprising: a first member having a plug protruding therefrom, said plug having a rosette configuration having a cylindrical portion with a plurality of arcuate protrusions evenly distributed around a circumference of said cylindrical portion, said cylindrical portion having a plug opening being coaxial with said cylindrical portion, said first member selected from a group including an attachment base and an accessory base, said attachment base dimensioned and configured to attach to the watercraft, said accessory base dimensioned and configured to support the boating accessory, said accessory base being a member of a wakeboard holder; a second member having a socket, said socket having a cylindrical recess and a bottom, said cylindrical recess having with a plurality of recesses evenly distributed around an inside circumference of said cylindrical recess, said cylindrical recess dimensioned and configured to receive said cylindrical portion of said plug with said plurality of protrusions engaging said plurality of recesses, said bottom extending away from said inside circumference of said cylindrical recess, said cylindrical recess bottom having a socket opening coaxial with said cylindrical recess, said second member being the other of said attachment base or said accessory base; and a fastener engaging said plug opening and said socket opening, said fastener retaining said plug in said socket, and said plug not removable from said first member when said plug is not engaging said socket. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 further including an extension member between a face of said first member and said plug. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said extension member includes a first extension member portion and a second extension member portion joined with an articulated joint. 4. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein said articulated joint includes said first extension member portion having a socket with an axis of rotation perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said first extension member portion and said second extension member portion having a corresponding plug with an axis of rotation perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said second extension member portion, said plug having a rosette shape, said socket dimensioned and configured to engage said plug, said socket and said plug each having a coaxial opening, and a fastener engaging said coaxial openings of said socket and said plug. 5. The apparatus of claim 1 further including a third member attached to said attachment base, said third member and said attachment base defining a cylindrical opening dimensioned and configured to clamp onto a tubular member attached to the watercraft. 6. An apparatus for adjustably connecting a boating accessory to a watercraft, said apparatus comprising: an attachment base having a plug protruding therefrom, said plug having a rosette configuration having a cylindrical portion with a plurality of rounded protrusions evenly distributed around a circumference of said cylindrical portion, said cylindrical portion having a plug opening being coaxial with said cylindrical portion, said attachment base dimensioned and configured to attach to the watercraft, said attachment base is a plate, said socket recessed in said plate, and said plate is configured to attach to a support member; an accessory base having a socket, said socket having a cylindrical recess with a plurality of recesses evenly distributed around an inside circumference of said cylindrical recess, said cylindrical recess dimensioned and configured to receive said cylindrical portion of said plug with said plurality of protrusions engaging said plurality of recesses, said cylindrical recess having a socket opening coaxial with said cylindrical recess, said accessory base dimensioned and configured to support the boating accessory; and a fastener engaging said plug opening and said socket opening, said fastener retaining said plug in said socket, and said plug fixed to said attachment base when said plug is not engaging said socket. 7. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein each one of said plurality of protrusions of said plug have at least one substantially planar surface and each one of said plurality of recesses of said socket have at least one corresponding substantially planar surface. 8. The apparatus of claim 6 further including an extension member between a face of said attachment base and said plug. 9. The apparatus of claim 6 further including an extension member between a face of said attachment base and said plug, said extension member includes a first extension member portion and a second extension member portion joined with an articulated joint. 10. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein said accessory base is a member of a wakeboard holder. 11. The apparatus of claim 6 further including a clamp member attached to said attachment base, said clamp member and said attachment base defining a cylindrical opening dimensioned and configured to clamp onto a tubular member attached to the watercraft. 12. An apparatus for adjustably connecting a boating accessory to a watercraft, said apparatus comprising: a first member having a plug, said plug having a cylindrical portion with a plurality of protrusions evenly distributed around a circumference of said cylindrical portion, said cylindrical portion having a plug opening being coaxial with said cylindrical portion, said first member selected from a group including an attachment base and an accessory base, said attachment base dimensioned and configured to attach to the watercraft, said accessory base dimensioned and configured to support the boating accessory; a second member having a socket, said socket having a cylindrical recess with a plurality of recesses evenly distributed around an inside circumference of said cylindrical recess, said cylindrical recess dimensioned and configured to receive said cylindrical portion of said plug with said plurality of protrusions engaging said plurality of recesses, said cylindrical recess having a socket opening coaxial with said cylindrical recess, said second member being the other of said attachment base or said accessory base; and a fastener engaging said plug opening and said socket opening, said fastener retaining said plug in said socket; wherein said accessory base is a member of a wakeboard holder. 13. The apparatus of claim 12 wherein said accessory base is a plate, and said socket recessed in said plate.
