A portable vessel includes a hard shell front hull section, a hard shell aft hull section, a flexible water tight material hull section affixed to the front hull section and the aft hull section in a water tight manner, the material section forming the middle portion of the hull of the vessel, and a tension-adjustable frame assembly. Tensioning of the frame assembly during assembly of the vessel causes tensioning of the material hull section from a less than taught state to a taught state about the frame assembly and wherein the disassembled components of the vessel may be configured into a backpack configuration for portage by a user.
