Abstract
An improved cart is provided to transport objects, particularly scuba diving equipment, over different surfaces such as asphalt and sand. The cart includes a two portion housing, one portion of which is constructed as a hull-like member which is removably mountable to a second portion constructed as a platform adapted to retain the equipment. A surface of the platform is provided with a roller system. The cart can be inverted to bring either the hull or the roller system into contact with the underlying surface over which the cart is to be transported to facilitate movement of the cart along the particular composition of underlying surface.
