5 second Folding Pop Up Boat assembly in small lagoon

This new concept of a folding paddle blade and pop-up Emergency Flood Craft was
developed immediately following inefficiencies
of the system in dealing with the aftermath
of Hurricane Katrina, 08/29/05. - - - - -
With a 5 second assembly, and as few as 16 seconds
to unassemble, this light weight emergency craft
may be stored in a small vehicle's trunk for a spur of the moment fishing spot, - or can be stored in an apartment, or closet, or under the bed for a
quick response to an emergency flood situation. - - - - - Several models include this folding unit with attached folding oars as a means of propulsion, and with some being designed for stacking several dozen
emergency water crafts upon a single
pallet for retail display, or storage. - - - - - One of the biggest targeted markets may include the same unit being stored within any basement as a stand-by protection to protect any especially valuable items during a sump pump failure or potential flood situation. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Launching the craft in the beginning of this video was delayed for a few seconds, as the boat was hung up on some sharp and barely submerged "fill rocks". The plastic material used for the unit is really quite tough and really difficult to tear or rip. -
All versions are not shown..
Several more are in the works on paper. -
