Comments about NRS Otter 150 Self Bailing Rafts:
I purchased this raft almost 4 years ago in Alaska. In over 600 miles of use from day trips fishing to week long expeditions in the Arctic this raft has made great family memories with very little wear & tear. It rolls small for easy transport in bush aircraft or car and for winter storage. I almost always use a frame on it and have added d-rings to the stern for additional support for a cargo platform and drybag tiedown. My only complaint is I wish the bottom was more slippery for low water runs. The Pennel Orca (hypalon) will grab every rock within reach of the raft. I'm currently looking at purchasing a 13' Otter for my sons to row separately.

Comments about NRS Otter 150 Self Bailing Rafts:
This is a great boat for medium and large rivers, plenty of cargo space for a 2-week Grand trip. Had it 3 years now, never needs extra air during a trip. Valves work well if you keep the sand out of them. Lighter than the Expedition model, but seems to be plenty tough for recreational use.

Q:
What is the weight capacity for this raft?Asked on 4/16/2013 by Rob1 answer
A:
Rob, we don't list weight capacities for our boats. See this article for our reasoning - http://www.nrsweb.com/boating_tips/BoatWeightCapacity.asp - The boat pictured with three people is my E-150. It's done it all, including a 23-day Grand Canyon. Trust me, it will carry what you need.Answered on 4/17/2013 by Clyde from NRS
Merchant response: Love the photos! Really makes me want to get back to your great state. Spent some great days in Anaktuvuk Pass. many years ago. -Clyde
