ABSTRACT:
A transportation device for the reception and transporting of persons and/or items over hard and soft surfaces including water. The transportation device includes a hull member having a bottom portion and upwardly extending side, forward and rear portions. At least the side portions, and in the preferred embodiment the front and rear portions as well, terminate in horizontally extending rim members which have portions defining holes therein which are used for attaching various articles such as, for example, canopies, covers, umbrellas and fluid containers. Wheel members are provided which can be permanently or releasably attached to the hull member whereby the transportation device can be rolled over a hard surface. The transportation device also includes a plurality of elongated spaced rib members disposed on the outer surface of the bottom portion of the hull member and extending longitudinally between the forward and rear portions of the hull member. The elongated spaced rib members are adapted so that the transportation device can be operated as a sled-like device for sliding movement over soft surfaces such as sand, snow and the like.
