The present invention concerns a transporting device (1) for launching and hauling boats. The transporting device according to the invention comprises a frame (3) arranged to support the hull of said boat and provided with at least two pairs of wheels (11, 13), each pair of wheels being formed by two wheels arranged aligned to each other on the opposite sides of said frame, and the frame being further provided with one or more tracks (15). Thanks to the simultaneous provision of both said pairs of wheels and said tracks, the device according to the invention is capable of easily and effectively moving both on roads and other hard terrains, and on soft terrains, such as for instance sandy or muddy terrains. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said wheels (11, 13) and said tracks (15) are mounted on said frame so as to be movable in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the frame itself so that they can be selectively brought into contact with the underlying ground or moved away from ground depending on the kind of terrain on which the device is moving.
