Off-the-shelf but expensive: http://www.klepper.com/index2.htm +

Or, if you don't mind a large trailer:

You may just be able to cram bike and self onto a Barrowboat
http://www.barrowboats.co.uk/barrowboat/barrow6.html but you may have
to scull, not row, her. It'll need a bigger wheel and some kind of
hitch too.

If you leave the bike on shore, the Sevylor trail boat
http://www.sevylor.com/hunting.html (scroll down) is the smallest I
know of, and has a clever pack sack that doubles as a pump.

An inflatable might be an option, but by the time you've blown it up, you'll
be well \\\\ tired.
Collapsibles are better behaved on the water, and often easier to
assemble. The record for a 2 man team and a double Klepper is
something like 4 minutes.

All-terrain pedalo anyone?
