Product Details
This custom NRS E-161 Self-Bailing Raft is the perfect boat for an outfitter running big water rapids, or a private boater with some fun-loving friends!
- The colorful raft was built in 2014. It has been used, so the side tubes do show some river wear; see the alternate photos. It has a new self-bailing floor and 18 new foot cups, installed at our boat factory. Overall, it is in very good condition.
- The asymmetrical design provides plenty of passenger room, excellent performance and an exciting ride.
- With a narrower width and more pointed bow, the E-161 will conquer big rapids without smoothing out the waves.
- The flatter stern operates as a guide platform and the lower rocker there improves paddling performance.
- Heavy-duty Pennel Orca® material is super abrasion, chemical and UV-resistant for unmatched durability.
- Full-coverage HD40 floor armor on the bottoms and sides of the tubes guards your boat from the wear and tear of boulders and beaches.
- Four main tube air chambers give you extra security in emergency situations.
- Self-bailing floor with quick-draining holes allows you to leave the bucket at home.
- 16 2" D-rings and 10 EasyCarry™ handles make rigging and launching the E-161 a snap.
- Trouble-free Leafield™ C7 Valves ensure easy inflation/deflation of the tubes, thwarts and floor, and the Leafield A6 Pressure Relief Valve protects the floor.
- If you do decide to add some thwarts, the NRS BAT™ Batten Attachment Thwart system loops let you easily add them.
- Built outfitter tough, this may be the last raft the private boater will ever need to buy.
- 7-year retail warranty, 4-year commercial.
