Wanting to surprise my bro with an awesome bday present. He does a lot of technical canyoneering and often has to pack -raft out on areas of the Colorado River. While he has a decent pack raft this looks to me that it would be easier to control and a little more fun. Any thoughts from those who have used this? Obviously he is not hitting the big rapids with his little pack rafts but he does encounter some of the more turbulent water and on other rivers and creeks more debris and higher currents.

hikeandbehappyIf he already has a “decent pack raft,” I wouldn’t get this one. This is not for whitewater. It’s a fun little boat that can be hauled to mountain lakes, and can be used to bob down streams, but if he‘s on the Colorado, this really isn’t the right boat. You’re a pretty awesome brother to be thinking about this, though!

ATPaddlerThanks for responding. I ultimately decided not to go with it after doing additional research. He's my oldest brother who always takes care of us (3 younger sisters) so we really just wanted something radical for him!
