A dashed line shows a valley fold. The paper is folded in front of itself. A dashed and dotted line shows a mountain fold (there may be one or two dots per dash depending on the author). The paper is folded behind itself, this is normally done by turning the paper over, folding a valley fold and then turning the paper back over again.
A modern folding board made mostly of polypropylene. A folding boat is usually a smaller boat, typically ranging from about 2 to nearly 6 metres (20 ft). [1] Folding boats can be carried by one or two persons, and comfortably fit into a car trunk when packed. They come in several varieties. There are folding kayaks and folding canoes.
The first boats were due for release to the public in mid-2013. Before release, the Quickboat was expected to weigh around 50 kg, seat four people, and to have a capacity for up to a 9.8 hp engine providing it with top speeds in excess of 20 knots.
Modular origami or unit origami is a multi-stage paper folding technique in which several, or sometimes many, sheets of paper are first folded into individual modules or units and then assembled into an integrated flat shape or three-dimensional structure, usually by inserting flaps into pockets created by the folding process.

The left and right edges of the paper fold and meet in the middle, without overlapping, along a center fold. The outer panels (the ones that fold in to the middle) are usually 0.8 mm to 3.2 mm smaller than the inner panels (the ones covered by the panels that fold in) to allow for proper folding and nesting.
The Miura fold is a form of rigid origami, meaning that the fold can be carried out by a continuous motion in which, at each step, each parallelogram is completely flat. This property allows it to be used to fold surfaces made of rigid materials, making it distinct from the Kresling fold and Yoshimura fold which cannot be rigidly folded and ...
In coxless boats, the bow is often responsible for giving calls to the crew. The bow pair of bow and "two", who are the two rowers closest to the boat's bow, are more responsible for the stability (called "set") and the direction of the boat than any other pair of rowers, and are often very technical rowers. The bow of a stern-coxed boat is ...
