Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2918035A1] The watercraft has a plastic tubular frame including an incurved form with a concave part, and rigid oblong floats (11, 12) respectively fixed at ends of the frame. A flexible plastic liner (7) serves to support the user seated on the concave part of the frame in a straddling manner. The frame includes a lower part (6) formed with water access holes (8, 9, 10), and air passage holes or vents (E1 , E2) in an upper part of the frame such that the frame is partially filled with water and the water contained inside the frame acts as a ballast when the watercraft is in the water.
