The incredible folding boat.

Don’t have room for a durable boat but don’t trust inflatables? Your worries are over, thanks to Porta-Bote. This little water craft folds down to a mere 4 inches flat, and the 12 footer weighs only 69 pounds, which means you can strap it to your vehicle’s roof like a surfboard. Not only can it handle an outboard motor, Porta-Bote also offers a Lateen rigged sailkit option. Check the retailer’s website for more sizes, information and pricing.

I like how you can just chuck it up there on the roof of your car; no trailer!
I've tried a folding canoe and it worked reasonably well. And, the experience was a blast.
