A generally leak proof open top self securing container for a human user and or their objects forms either a water craft or small toy boat or floating tackle tray; and pending a final size and or material which the no-parts container is formed of. The container comprises end walls (18) having hingedly connected interlocking flaps (20) having notches (22) that interlock with other notches (12) (13) (15) located within the edges of the side walls (10) to wedge-lock and laterally secure the end walls (18) between the interlocked locations and exteriorly located triangular shape hingedly-mated corner projections (24). No fastening parts, or adhesives, or tabs or interiorly located tab receiving apertures are required to retain the structural stability of the preferred embodiment. One alternative embodiment includes additional bend lines (5) extending the width to enable a compact folding. Alternative embodiments include a hingedly connected side wall strengthening flap (14) (16) having perforated portions (17) within the bend line (6) for optional removal. Final embodiments include closed cell floatation foam (40), flute channel plugs (44) (46) (48), side wall apertures (26), connecting rods (39), and elastic cords (36).
