Rapid Raft

4.7
Rated 4.7 out of 5 stars

The Rapid Raft from Uncharted Supply Co. is the lightest and most packable raft to ever be made available to the public.
Designed to fulfill a military request for rapid deployment and re-packing for fluid transition to the water, the Rapid Raft is an efficient and trustworthy mode of transport. Its durable and ultralight construction make it perfect for a variety of uses including:
  • Fishing
  • Backpacking
  • Camping
  • Hunting
  • Recreation
  • Navigating floods
  • Emergency water landings
This extremely durable 3 pound raft inflates in seconds and can hold 400 pounds.
We are often asked the difference between Rapid Raft 1 and Rapid Raft 2.

The Rapid Raft’s original purpose was for rapid water crossings. While air retention was extremely good, Version 1 would slowly lose air over several hours, requiring 2-3 puffs on the one-way valve every few hours.

The popularity among kayakers and all-day use cases took us back to the drawing board. Version 2 features a new closure system, which while may not appear to be much different, now retains air for several days. We’ve achieved this by a combination of a slightly different construction and a lighter weight, stickier material at the opening, creating a tighter seal.

    Rapid Raft

    I haven't put it in the water yet but I have inflated it a couple times just to get familiar with it. It seems rugged and should work just fine for a hunt in September.

    Almost a Home Run

    I use a pack raft for float escapes from canyons. The RapidRaft was appealing because of it's small packed size, light weight and use of good materials in it's construction.

    The thing that holds it back from a 5 star review is the over statement of the rafts easy inflation. I'd love to see the video outtakes of how many times it took to get a good inflation based on their technique. I've used sleeping pads with this same venturi effect and they had the same problem. The raft still requires manual inflation, more than UnCharted would have you believe. If you were in an area with some breeze and you could move the raft in to the wind it might work as demonstrated, but after a number of uses that is not my experience. I carry a small battery inflator to bring the raft up to a usable pressure and have done it manually by blowing as well.

    It's a snug fit for me at 5'10" with a 50L pack sitting on my feet, but the raft floats well, is reasonably responsive to paddling and gets the job done for shorter float trips, I've done +3 miles on slow moving rivers.

    Packing the raft up is where this raft shines. Easy and fast deflation and packing. I'm always the first one packed and get some extra rest before the hike out.

    If weight and size is your goal this could be a good choice for you. If longer trips are what you're in to then look for a more task specific product.

    Rapid Raft Perfect Name

    Everything I’d hoped for. Lightweight, compact, durable, rapid to inflate, and rapid well to pack back up after use. Rapid Raft is the perfect name.
