Collapsable rail/Kicker

Any suggestions on how to make a collapsable rail/kicker. My idea is that you would have a kicker that would fold down to become a wide funbox type thing. The problem is that it would have to float and me strong enough to function.

Ok, I know how to build a kicker that would callapse into a flat table top like thing. Like opa locka sk8r, said, you would have legs that are hinged inward. At the bottom on the leg, you would have a pin on each one - you would need two. This would basically float on a styrofoam dock. You have the part of the kicker that goes into the water on hinges, so when you remove the pins, the legs collapse, and the kicker lays down flat or allows you to change the angle.
