Abstract
A foldable beach wagon with steerable front wheels is disclosed. The wagon has a frame having a first end assembly, an opposing second end assembly and a floor assembly connected between the first end assembly and the second end assembly. A steering link is pivotally connected to the wagon frame adjacent the first end assembly, and a handle is pivotally connected to the steering link. When the steering link is pivoted by the handle a tie rod moves laterally to pivot the front wheels for turning the wagon. A hanger assembly is connected to the wagon frame adjacent the second end assembly. The hangar assembly is adapted to receive one or more chairs. Fenders are provided over the rear wheels to block engagement of the chairs with the rear wheels of the wagon.
