I just stumbled across this whilst telling myself "I Don't Need A Packraft".....     excellent report on paddling around the London canals.

Excellent. Years ago I met a fellow traveller in Alaska who had an inflatable canoe.  He was able to transport it on his bike and then when in the canoe it carried the partially disassembled bike.

I've been considering getting some sort of small paddlable craft. I haven't come to any conclusions yet though. There a few small creeks in the Saarfend area where you can simply mess about a fair bit.

My pal Jon has one but I don't know that he's used it a lot lately. He's too busy trying to save the human race.
