ABSTRACT:
An amphibious utility trailer to haul a load over land and/or to ferry a motorized vehicle over water. The trailer is adapted to receive marine propulsive power and/steering control from wheel torque and/or steering mechanism of a vehicle, such as an ATV. A propulsor such as a paddle wheel, propeller, or water jet propels the trailer through water when engaged with ATV wheel torque. A friction coupling such as a treadmill or set of rollers in the trailer bed removably interconnects the propulsor with ATV tires. The trailer may also include a rudder operable through a removable coupling with the ATV handlebars to steer the trailer in water. The arrangement enables the trailer to be “driven” over water utilizing the ATV and yet still provide a plain and simple utility trailer for hauling traditional items over land.
