I can see that.  I've only seen one sectional kayak that has sections
that nest together.  If they don't nest, you're trading length for 
diameter of the package.  Something that big is going to be a problem
on aircraft and just lugging it around would be a pain.  A boat-in-a-bag
definitely has an advantage both in packed size and reduced fragility
(real or imagined).
