Product Details

Toss your gear in the trunk, grab some tie-downs, and get ready to hit the water—trailer-free—with the NRS Approach 100. This micro-raft is designed to give adventure anglers more access to skinny waters and remote fisheries. With an emphasis on stealth and access, the ultralight Approach redefines the limits of where a boat can take you.

Purpose-built for stealth, the Approach micro-rafts combine smaller tubes with a thick drop-stitch floor insert to enhance buoyancy, letting it draft in really skinny water.
Ultra-lightweight design for easy transport. All Approach Rafts can fit in a standard truck bed or atop a Jeep or SUV.
Whitewater-engineered for ultimate durability with welded seam tube construction and rugged PVC materials plus bottom and top wear patches.
4" drop-stitch floor with a slip-resistant foam pad provides superior traction and grip when wet, reduces weight by eliminating casting platforms and protects the floor from grit and basic wear and tear.
Adjustable Slot Rail engineering creates a modular frame that easily adjusts to keep anglers comfortable and the boat balanced for superior rowing performance.
Ten D-rings provide tie-down points for a frame or gear.
Three main air chambers plus the drop-stitch floor insert keep you afloat in the event of a puncture.
Approach Dry Box seat platform provides convenient external trays and internal waterproof storage compartments keeping gear dry, organized, and eliminating tripping hazards.
A Rower Seat can attach to the Approach Dry Box for added rowing comfort. (Seat not included.)
Internal anchor system easily controlled from the rower's seat keeps anchor line away from anglers and gear. Includes 3/8" anchor line.
Rower’s Package (sold separately) also includes a 2:1 assist pulley, making retrieving anchors an effortless task, plus an 14 lb. Tornado anchor.
Features high-quality Leafield™ C7 Inflation valves and six self-fabric handles.
5-year retail warranty, 3-year commercial.
