We tried an inflatable and a Porta-bote and found it took so much time to assemble them and put in all the things we needed (seats, anchor, motor, fuel tank or battery, fishing gear, etc.) and to reverse the process as we could not leave the boat in the water as the launch areas were seldom near our campsite that we stopped trying.
I saw PortaBoat at the state fair. They now have a bracket that mounts the boat on the side of the TT slide. That looked pretty easy to deal with. Of course now the 8' wide TT is now about a foot wider. We really want to have a boat with us. Many of the places we camp have great water for fishing and cruising around.
that side mount bracket (not necessarily slide) has been around for many years. of course it will make your RV into a piece of equipment that is illegal to drive down the road without a lead car, fore and aft flag men, overside load banners, etc. :)
