Abstract

A watercraft (1) is provided having a primary deck (3) that is carried on two primary buoyant members, such as pontoons (5, 7), that are substantially parallel to one another. The watercraft (1) includes a pair of deck extensions (13, 15) that are articulately connected to opposing sides of the primary deck (3). Each deck extension (13, 15) may comprise a number of extension segments (21, 23) that in concert form the deck extension. The watercraft (1) is operable between a deployed condition in which the deck extensions (13, 15) are substantially coplanar with the primary deck (3), thereby extending the primary deck (3) and a stowed condition, in which the deck extensions (13, 15) are raised substantially above the primary deck (3) with the extension segments (21, 23) of each deck extension alternately folded. The deck extensions (21, 23) are each connected to an auxiliary buoyant (25) member such that, when the watercraft (1) is in the deployed condition, each deck extension (13, 15) is carried on the buoyant member (25) connected thereto.
