Abstract: Bow and stern sections (1,2) of a boat are hinged together to enable the bow section (1) to be folded over the stern section (2) which has wheels (6) deployed for towing and storage on land. The folded boat is towed by a towbar (10) bolted to a retracted spine (8) of a chassis (7) on which the stern section (2) is mounted. The spine (8) is extendable telescopically to support the unfolded bow section (1), and the wheels (6) are pivotally-mounted on the chassis (7) to be retracted by over-center operation, into open-bottom compartments (26) of the stern section (2); an interlock with the spine (8) precludes wheel-retraction while the spine (8) is retracted. Spring-biased doors (36) are freed to close the open-bottoms of the compartments (26) in response to retraction of the wheels (6).
