Inflatable kayak
Also: inflatable kayak
An inflatable kayak is usually made of PVC or rubberised fabric. It is longer and faster than a packraft, but heavier.
Typical inflatable kayaks weigh many times as much as a packraft and fit in a car boot rather than a backpack. In return they track better and are cheaper. Wikipedia names rubber and PVC as common materials.
