Great little raft.

Fantastic flat / still water Packrafts! Perfect for just relaxing and finding your way down the shore of an alpine lake. Tracks well. Fairly lightweight, no in tube storage, so mostly good for day trips, and short outings.

Great simple raft

This is a light raft well suited for alpine lakes. It handles well. I prefer this to my Alpacka if I’m dayhiking for fishing. We live in Northwest Montana, so lots of options for packing this in!

Buy a Kokopelli or Alpcaka instead

NRS makes great rafts, life jackets, dry suits, straps and everything else. But they are new to the packraft game, and this boat is a flop (literally). I'd give it a year or 2 until they have it dialed, but in the mean time go with a better brand.
