Why We Like The D Series 143 Raft

The D Series 143 Raft from Aire is an exceptional choice for those seeking adventure on the water. Whether you prefer the thrill of running rapids with a frame and gear on the middle fork of the Salmon, or the excitement of paddling down Hell's Canyon, this raft has you covered. The unique diminished tube design not only provides a thrilling experience by keeping paddlers close to the action but also enhances maneuverability compared to Aire's R Series rafts. With 10 inches of bow and stern rise, this fourteen-footer is capable of handling any river with ease.
