A multihull vessel includes four main beam assemblies connected a central hull with two outer hulls and a deployment/retraction system which operates on the principle of converting transverse width of the beams into the longitudinal dimension, within the overall length of the vessel. An overall length of the multihull vessel is approximately the same when the four main beam assemblies are deployed and when four main beam assemblies are retracted.
