55 Seconds is All it Takes to Deploy 4 Emergency Boats With Their Attached Means Of Propulsion, and which are 2 Folded Paddles of the Same Material – - – This Short Video introduces Multi-stages of Deployment, and Shown On Land And Water. – and while made from only one single substrate.

I have studied boat design and owned many boats
through my 67 years, often one or two boats bought
and sold annually. Yours is the most original that I ever
have seen. The setup and instant pop-out are
amazing.
As a fisherman who loves to squeeze into smaller less
available lakes, your boat looks neat. However, it
probably is not practical for fishing. But I can dream.
Do you sell plans or the complete boat? Might be fun
to have one.

In reply to Bob; thank you for your positive comment.
Have you seen all of the videos ?
See this one in Particular:

My two sons and I have stood up within one of our over
40 or so prototypes and have rocked it violently from
side to side without capsizing the craft. That version
has an interior cabin space of 26 inches by 10 feet.
My wife and I have gone out on a lake many times in
one craft with a battery, trolling motor, fishing poles and
an ice chest. We have also clamped two boats
together with my wife and daughter in one craft, and
myself and the motor and battery and other items
being within the second and attached craft.

There are now suppliers of corrugated plastic who
carry the material in 5 foot by 14 foot lengths, and so
should produce a 38 inch wide by 12 foot craft.
Serious dedicated fishing ? – Maybe not . . . but for
spur of moment fishing . . . oh yeah, its good.
Eventually within the major box type stores, you may see pallets of our folded no-parts water crafts with their attached means of propulsion being the folding oars. We are open to capital investment to fund the proper course.
Thank you again for your positive comment,
and congratulations on your ability to see potential.

The basis of the project is a search for extreme sensations at sea and the application of this language of adventure sports to nautical endeavors, resulting in a 12-m length, 4.5m beam mono-hull sailboat, ready for navigating storms and enjoying extreme sea conditions. A project carried out by members of D-Tank and Rücker Ibérica, in collaboration with the Elisava Superior School of Design and the Nautical Salon of Barcelona.
