In Response To: Other: foldable outrigger - some ideas? (dschin)

I built a SOF outrigger canoe, and I suspect the hull could easily be built as an aluminum framed take-apart boat, like one of Tom Yost's.
She paddles great, but is rigged for sail, so the akas and ama are long . . . shorter ones would suffice for a paddling only version. You could probably come up with something that fits in a bag.
Splinter is too small for your requirements - 200kg - but it would be easy enough to come up with something similar, but a bit bigger.

Good luck in your search!
