I've never used an Alpacka raft, but their reputation and track record is good enough for me to trust them.


Very nice rafts. The lightest (Alpacka Scout)only weighs 3lbs 3oz. Costly is right though. $500 for the Scout. They sound great, but probably beyond my price range.

Thanks for the reference and somebody else may find it is just what they were looking for!
