Abstract: A craft transportable by road by being hitched at the rear of a vehicle, including two wheels capable of being extended from their housing into running position through an opening in the housing, each wheel being coupled by a shaft to one first end of a lever arm, the assembly being articulated on a shaft integral with the hull, and the second end of the lever arm being coupled by a shaft to a shock absorber fixed to a first support for maintaining the wheels in extended position. When the wheels are retracted IN the housing, a trap door integral with the lever arm is urged to come to a stop on a boss to close the housing opening after the shock absorber has been released and fixed upon a second support integral with the lever arm and after the lever arm has been fixed to a third support integral with the hull, so as to close the opening completely, thereby preventing water from penetrating into the housing where the wheel is located.
