faltboat

/fˈæltboʊt/ noun B2

a boat that can be folded up

Word Origin From German falten 'to fold' and boat—so a faltboat is literally a 'fold-boat', a collapsible boat. The German falten is cognate with English fold, both from PIE *pel- 'to fold'. The same root gives us fold, unfold, and folder. The boat part is from Proto-Germanic *baitaz, related to *bheid- 'to split', as boats were originally hollowed-out logs.
