Abstract
A multi-use watercraft wherein a bay, or bays, is formed in the aft portion for docking a personal watercraft (PWC). The PWC are connected to provide propulsion for the multi-use watercraft when so docked in the bay. The multi-use watercraft and the PWC may be separated and used independently while on the water. The PWC may also be docked in the bay of the multi-use watercraft while on the water. Also provided is the ability to sail the multi-use watercraft. Mast, rudders and dagger board may be installed while on the water thus allowing the multi-use watercraft to use wind for propulsion. The multi-use watercraft may be converted to sailing mode with or without the PWC being docked.
