A collapsible boat hull comprising: a pair of bottom panels, each bottom panel having a first continuous hinge along an inner edge thereof and a second continuous hinge along an outer edge thereof; and a pair of side panels, each side panel being connected to an adjacent bottom panel along a respective second continuous hinge, the first and second continuous hinges each having spines, the spines having resilient flexibility along respective longitudinal and transverse planes thereof, thereby facilitating the bottom and side panels to be moved between a folded configuration and an erected configuration. In the erected configuration, each side panel and its adjacent bottom panel provide a tensile force to each other through their respective second continuous hinge, the tensile force causing portions of the panels to form a concave curvature to define the sides of the boat hull.
