Pakayak plans to manufacture a portable kayak, and the company has turned to Kickstarter for startup funding. The concept is simple: a kayak composed of several sections that can be quickly assembled at the water's edge. A tongue and groove locking system keeps the interior dry and you afloat, even in ocean or whitewater.
The first Pakayak design is a 14 foot boat that breaks down into a 42x24x16 inch package that weighs 50 lb.

The web page is worth viewing, if only to see the timeline of the project. Setbacks, delays, promises not met, funding shortages, and finally, a model ready for production. They are about 20% of the way to their funding goal.
