    Wouldn’t it avoid confusion if we simply deleted this thread?

  • Hi @hiroshi, the floor and seams can be either black or the same colour as the tubes – it is your choice. The product page tells you how to indicate which style you prefer.

    I recommend a Large packraft for your stature.

    The kit does not include a printed manual, as all of the instructions are on the How-To web pages, including pictures and…[Read more]

    It is a question about color.
    For example, if you choose blue, is the floor and tape blue?
    Or is the floor or tape black?

  • hiroshi replied to the topic some questions in the forum DIY Packrafts 9 years, 1 month ago

    Thank you for an immediate answer.
    By the way, I am 180cm tall, 100 kg in weight, does the size have good S, M, which of L?

    Then will DIY PACKRAFT KIT have the manual?

    @lynsg Hi Lyn, I moved my reply from this topic to be its own topic so the colour chart will stay at the top of the page. Thanks for starting the conversation 🙂

  • Something like Pantone 342/3425, 343, 357 would suit me. Something dark and stealthy rather than light and bright. Alpacka and MRS both do a nice enough green. I have an MRS X2 in green which blends into the scenery on the bank.

    I understand that complementing the other primary colours is an option to consider, but I imagine that most peope…[Read more]

  • Hi @Hiroshi,

    Thanks for your interest in a DIY Packraft. The side tube diameter is 27.5 cm (11″) and the safe load capacity is over 150 kg (300 lbs) – the actual volume is over 300 litres (i.e. over 300 kg buoyancy).

    Whitewater packrafting is possible with the single layer floor, but I recommend the double layer floor for added durability if…[Read more]

    Nice to meet you.
    I ask some questions.

    1. How much is the side tube diameter? cm
    2. how much is loading(Buoyancy)? kg
    3. Is “whitewater pacrafting” still possible on the single layer floor? Or is it double layer floors?

  • I’d like to add some green fabric to the shop to complement the red, yellow, blue and black fabrics there now. I’m curious if people like light green or dark green, earthy green or bright green, or maybe something […]

  • Several people have requested green fabric, and I’m wondering what hue appeals to people most. If you could have any shade of green, which would you pick? Keep in mind that it should complement the red, yellow, and blue fabrics already available in the shop.

    As a starting point, here are some options:

    Pantone Greens

    I will be making a boat for my son in March, from camo as that’s what he chose. For my own boat, which I will make straight after his, I would like a dark forest or olive green. Something which blends into the forest when the boat is pulled up on a river bank.

    Is there any chance of getting such a colour in stock?

  • What an excellent inflatable floor. I wouldn’t want it self-bailing in the UK climate, but I plan to start my two rafts in March and will definitely incorporate this.

    Thanks for the info and photos.
