Abstract

A folding boat has two bottom panels (12, 13) each hinged along a straight longitudinal edge to a respective side of an elongate keel structure (22, 23) and along an opposite curved, chine edge to a correspondingly curved edge of a respective side panel (16, 15), the hinges being flexible and resilient such that the panels (12, 13, 15, 16) can be folded to lie flat against each other with the side panels innermost. To erect the boat (11). The bottom panels are opened outwardly and edge reinforcing (26, 27) ribs are inserted in respective grooves in opposite sides of the keel structure. The side panels are then opened, causing curvature of the panels and of the keel structure to lock the ribs in the grooves and interlock crenellated reinforcing members (19, 20) along the chine edges to form a rigid structure. Removable transverse thwarts, a bow panel and a folding transom structure maintain the side panels apart in the erected boat. <IMAGE>
