Default Skin over frame folding rowboat?

Hi Folks,

Has anyone ever done/tried to do (home made or commercial) a
collapsible rowboat using a plastic (or other) covering on an aluminum
tube frame? There are lots of kayaks of this type and a few canoes,
but I'd really be interested in a row boat. Any practical reason this
couldn't be done?

I've considered trying to adapt a skin over wood frame non-collapsible
design, but they tend to have a lot a frame parts...

Regards,

Michael
