A hand manipulatable vehicle for use in the beaching of a watercraft and for stabilizing the beached watercraft against lateral movement of the aft end thereof while beached. The vehicle includes a lightweight frame which provides support for a pair of spaced apart runners that are adapted to receive the bow of a watercraft thereon and to support the bow of the watercraft off the beach or the bottom of the body of water. Preferably the vehicle includes wheels at one end thereof and a handle at its opposite end for ready and easy movement and positioning of the vehicle. A "four point" anchoring of the vehicle in the beach or bottom of the body of water is provided by the wheels and by posts provided on that end of the vehicle opposite the location of the wheels. This anchoring of the vehicle and the elongated nature of the runners further stabilize the beached watercraft against lateral movement of the aft end of the watercraft and against tilting of the beached watercraft during embarkation and disembarkation maneuvers. Transportation of the vehicle to and from a body of water may be via a common watercraft trailer.
