Hi Matt

You should make a packraft specifically for bikerafting. Have a more durable/thicker material at the bow and stern where you can place your bike. What would be amazing is constructing a 2 person version. Where you have the ability either putting both bikes in the bow or stern for weight distribution and balance.

I’ve also seen little…[Read more]

Hi! Not spam.  Here to figure out how to DIY a deck onto my raft!

Holes in the floor will lower the waterline somewhat. The amount will depend on a few factors, such as packraft model/size, paddler weight, and weight of gear carried. The best way to find out is to make a small hole in the packraft’s floor (where you plan to place one of the drain holes), load up the packraft with your typical gear, and then sit…[Read more]

Looking forward to build my first raft.

Hi!

I’m new here and looking for some information to build my own raft. I’m from the Netherlands, so if someone can help me source parts here in the EU, please contact me!

Hello, all.

I ordered the sample materials pack a couple of weeks ago. Should be here soon.

I am going to make the two-person raft. I think. I ordered my iron on Ali Express, too.

I’m very excited.

There’s currently a sell-off of a 100 Liter (no idea much this is cubic inches) inflation bag on German eBay and similar sites, for around 5 Eurones. Just in time,  as I anyway wanted to build an XXL inflation bag. The Produkt is called Fluxbag:…[Read more]
