Origami folding kayak
Also: Oru, Nortik Fold
Origami kayaks are folded from a single plastic sheet, much like paper. Setup takes only a few minutes.
Wikipedia names Oru Kayak and Nortik Fold as examples, with about five minutes of setup. They are easier to transport than hardshell kayaks, but considerably heavier and bigger than a packraft.
