ABSTRACT:
A lightweight folding boat with tent and trailer described in which the boat includes dual hulls joined by quick disconnect hinges and draw latches in a manner which allows the hulls to be locked in a fixed open position, folded with one hull atop the other for storage and towing, or easily separated for manual portaging or use as two independent canoes. When in the folded position the raised cockpit mates on three of the four sides providing a sheltered opening to allow quick access to the interior or the hulls for gear storage. The boat includes internal storage compartments, sleeping cots and a table. The tent may be configured for partial to full protection from the elements and also may be used as a sail for propulsion. The trailer has movable supports which allow for the boat to be towed in the open or folded position and also allows the boat to be used as a tent camper while on land.
