YMI Go Game Roll Up Magnetic Travel Set,

If you’re looking for a high quality and easily portable Go game set in a standard 19×19 size, then this set is for you. The board rolls up into the carrying tube like a fine calligraphy scroll, but it will not take the shape of the tube so it will unroll flat every time. The pieces are magnetic for playing Go on planes, trains, and automobiles.

Board is 19×19 and measures 14’‘L x 14’‘W (35cm x 36.5cm).
Carrying tube measures 14-1/4’‘L x 3-1/8’‘W (36.5cm x 8cm).
Includes 180 white pieces and 181 black magnetic stones.

Very good magnetic goban! - Written by Trevoke

This goban’s magnetism is strong enough that it will stick to your fridge, and the stones won’t move if it is picked up (granted, I didn’t try whipping it around with great force…). As advertised by YMI, it seems it would indeed be great as a traveling goban in the car, boat or plane. As for me.. I’m usually driving, but it is already in my trunk, ready to be taken out at a moment’s notice! If you don’t already have a travel solution that works for you, I recommend this goban.

The only issue I see with it is that it is a hand strap, not a shoulder strap. A small detail :)
