More pics available upon request. This boat is a 2005 and has been stored inside, inflated. This is a great size boat for the smaller rivers of the northwest because they ride high in the water and are nimble enough for even the tightest spots. It’s a great boat!

Price ranges from $2400 for boat and six paddles to $2900 with rowing frame cooler, and Oars … and for another $50, I will throw in six paddles. Please contact me at 541-908-0868 for more information! We’ll be on the Deschutes River this weekend, but I will return calls ASAP.

• Frame is customized NRS compact Outfitter Frame – Has been used only about 6 days.
• Carlisle Oars and Blades.
• Paddles are Carlisle Yellow and Blue.

Rogue River MDW 2009

admin — Wed, 13 May 2009 08:28:02 +0000

Last weekend was the annual Mother’s Day Weekend Rogue River float. We had three beautiful days of sunshine and hardly any wind. Families and friends gathered from Washington, Idaho, and Oregon to put in at Graves’ Creek on the beautiful Rogue River. About 20 minutes into the float we encounter the mighty Rainie Falls. This year about half of our group scouted the hole, including fish ladder, and got ready with throw ropes for our 10 boats to make their way through. As always, it was an entertaining event! More soon on this!

Expect photos from the trip up on our website by the end of the week! Check this post for more information. An awesome time was had by all.
