jolie, we bought a paddle bag last year (can't remember who makes it, 
sorry).  it holds 4 take-apart paddles.  we took it to hawaii (well, i am 
so in love with my lightning paddle i wouldn't paddle with any rental stuff 
ever).  just the one paddle was in there, but so were our surf and dive 
fins, bathing suits, flip-flops, and a lot of clothes.  checked it thru 
twice, absolutely not a scratch on it, and wow, you can cram a lot of junk 
in those bags.  ours has a strap so you can carry it on your back, a very 
handy feature.
