I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

The Otter Series Raft

Experience ultimate versatility and durability with the NRS Otter Series Raft. Whether you're embarking on a leisurely day float or an adventurous multi-day journey, this raft is designed to handle it all. Its compact size allows for easy maneuverability through narrow river sections, while its ample space can accommodate heavy loads on longer trips. Choose to paddle it as is for quick and carefree floats or attach a rowing frame for more demanding expeditions. With seating for six to nine paddlers and the capability to add a third thwart using the NRS BAT system, this raft offers endless possibilities.

Constructed from heavy-duty Pennel Orca material, this raft is built to withstand the harshest conditions. Its abrasion-resistant properties ensure longevity, even against rocky river bottoms. Additionally, it is highly resistant to chemicals and UV rays, further enhancing its durability. The HD40 floor armor on the tube bottoms provides extra protection in high-impact areas, safeguarding the raft during rugged journeys.

In the event of an accident, the three main tube air chambers provide essential buoyancy and keep you afloat. The self-bailing floor with quick-draining holes eliminates the need for a bucket, ensuring hassle-free maintenance. With the user-friendly Leafield C7 valves, inflation and deflation are a breeze. The four handles enable easy put in, take out, and portaging, while the 12 stainless D-rings offer ample tie-down points for all your gear.
