The invention concerns a boat (10) comprising a hull (11) that is suitable for being towed on a solid surface and comprises a hitching device (30) comprising a straight drawbar (39) and a hitching mechanism (31), characterised in that the hitching device is movable in translation along an axis parallel to a longitudinal axis of the hull (11) between a stowed position in which the hitching device is more retracted into the hull and a deployed position in which the hitching device extends further out of the hull than when in the stowed position.
