Technical specifications
Build
Like all our boats, the structure is assembled without a drop of glue. The fabric is entirely welded together using high frequency technology, which guarantees the best possible bond between materials. The parts fixed together using this method are actually stronger after welding than before.
Materials
For the Classic Fabric : 210 high-count nylon with double TPU coating for the sidewalls, and extreme abrasion resistance 840 denier double TPU coated fabric for the the floor.
For the Armor Fabric : 420 high-count nylon with double TPU coating for the sidewalls, and extreme abrasion resistance 840 denier double TPU coated fabric for the the floor.
In partnership with the valve manufacturer Leafield , we have developed the Leafield D7 Speed valve for the 2024 models, which makes inflation faster and easier. The Leafield D7 Speed valve is the most robust and durable valve around and therefore has a lifetime warranty. Our seats come with one way, low profile, valves that have a quick deflation tab.
Internal storage (optional)
Are you thinking about heading out on a multiday trip and want to carry a lot of gear? Then go for the internal storage system, you will be able to keep all you gear inside nice and dry! Attention: the Tizip™ is fragile and needs regular maintenance.

FAQ
Our Armor fabric is made of high tenacity 420 denier nylon with a double TPU coating. It is extremely tear resistant (+60% compared to the Classic version) and abrasion resistant. It is however heavier than the Classic fabric (+650 gramms for a one-person raft).
The internal storage system consists of an airproof zipper (Superseal by Tizip) that is welded to the back of your packraft. By opening the zip you have access to the inside of the boat and can store you gear (tent, sleeping bags, backpack…) safely. Think about it like turning your packraft into a giant dry-bag. You have over 200L to store your gear. More than enough space for even those that can’t leave home without the kitchen sink. Zip it up and you are off!
The internal storage system is extremely practical for those that want go on an expedition for several days or weeks and need to bring a large quantity of equipment and provisions. During day trips, it is not essential, but makes life easier.
Please remember that the zipper needs to be treated delicately and cleaned regularly. Because of this is is excluded from our warranty, like other manufacturers. If you zip is not maintained and becomes damaged or dirty it will leak slightly. In conclusion, if you are not someone who is not very careful with their equipment, maybe you should think carefully about adding this option.
George is available in two sizes, Standard and Plus. The choice depends on both you size and the amount of gear you are planning on taking with you during your trips.
If you are over 1.80m or you plan to use your boat to bikeraft frequently and carry your bike at the front, then go for the Plus version. If this is not the case, go for the Standard.

– Yellow & Black (Classic Fabric)
