NRS Raft Question - Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2013年3月17日 — TonyZ. 212 posts · Joined 2012. #3 · Mar 18, 2013. In my raft guide days, we had a full range on NRS rafts. The E series is the pickup truck of their lineup and the otter is more of a sports car. The otter has more rocker (kick at the bow and stern) so they maneuver very nice, but tend to spin if your not on the oars 100%.
RMR vs Tributary - Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2018年4月18日 — It's just extra maintenance, and it allowed me to save money for other gear. Both are good rafts in my opinion and if there is ultimately some serious flaw with the Outlaw floor long term you can bet that NRS will take care of you. I haven't worked with RMR but my NRS customer service experience has been extraordinary. I hope this helps.
Boats - Show me your raft | Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2012年11月7日 — The one thing I might change is build a custom, break down aluminum rower module and put it on one of the 80 lb NRS rafts and invite a buddy to split the cost on a Dean River helicopter drop off float trip.
Boats - NFR: Hauling Raft on Top of Truck Bed Rails
网页2007年3月20日 — The last time I was over there I saw some guides and local fishermen hauling their rafts on platforms that fit on top of the bed rails on their truck. The platform essentially started near the cab and extended about 3-4 feet past the tailgate. Their rafts were tied down to this platform and they were then able to haul their rafts up and down ...
Dave scadden question. | Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2021年5月18日 — The raft has diminishing tubes and as a rule it was not used with a stern mount frame. The material was plenty durable; not as tough as the NRS Outlaw material, per se, but also notable is that the Aire Tributary designs also feature an internal urethane bladder (noticeably absent on the NRS rafts).
Boats - Ideas for transporting a raft without trailer
网页2011年5月12日 — For the last twenty years I've transported a 12 1/2 foot raft (an NRS Sprite and now an Achilles) in a variety of vehicles, including a Subaru wagon, and now an S-10 pickup. I fully deflate the raft, fold it in thirds lengthwise and roll it, and the frame breaks down and straps together into a fairly compact bundle.
Boats - New Raft - Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2009年8月26日 — The NRS will be wider which makes it more stable, however you sacrifice some maneuverability for this stability. The extra cargo room is nice, as is the ability to roll the boat. Hypalon is rad for durability, PVC tends to break down quicker/be more finnicky. However, the AIRE destroys a NRS in terms of tracking.
Drift Boat or Raft | Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2018年3月27日 — We looked at NRS, Maravia, RMR, Hyde, AIRE, and finally Sotar. If your on a budget, I would highly recommend AIRE. They have the best warrenty in the business, no questions asked. Rocky Mountain Rafts (RMR) is a fairly new company, They are very durable and have a lot of good reviews already.
Boats - NRS or Outcast | Washington Fly Fishing Forum
网页2009年12月3日 — NRS boats are excellent. I prefer Maravia and don't have an opinion on Outcast. NRS, Aire, and Maravia are top of the line boats and will last a long time with proper maintenance. All three have great service as well.
