Text on facilities at a boating club.
Any idea what the "chariots" might be here?
Sorry about the lack of context, the text gives only brief information for a range of different clubs/services, etc., and the "chariots" aren't mentioned elsewhere. Any suggestions very welcome.
- Rampe de mise à l'eau et chariots avec grue de mâtage, parking dériveurs.

Lauching trolleys, used only for boats (tail or wing trolleys are also used to move gliders around and launching a glider with these would be very dangerous)

: I think that could lead to ambiguity, as it might be taken as referring to a 'lorry' type truck! I've not heard the expression used like this in a yachting context in the UK.

boat-trailer
I would say "boat-trailer" in spite of the fact that the text doesn't say "remorque", the GDT seems to agree with me.
Peer comment(s):
| disagree |
Tony M
: I think they are making the specific difference here between a 'launching trolley' and what would otherwise be a 'road trailer' / No, it's just a yachting terminology thing; for launching, it's a 'trolley'; for the road it's a 'trailer'

I see your point Dusty, but you don't need to be a vehicle to trail something

here most likely a harnass to carry the boat supported by a frame with wheels, but still just a guess

: Ok I understand what you mean but I have never heard of chariot associated to grue de mâtage. With the ramp, it must be 3 different items.

According to the text, 'launch ramp and trolleys with mast crane'

Tony M
: Not technically likely to put a mast crane onto a trolley; it's safe to assume that the 'chariots' belong with the 'rampe' and not the grue
