Great review! Excellent little boat for just about anything! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It really is!
I’m the beginning of the video, your paddling it backwards. The cargo-fly goes towards the back and the stubbier part of the boat (the rocker) is the front.
Pretty slick! It's amazing what's available these days. Thanks for showing us. Looking forward to the "handling" review next time. Have a great week.
More to come!
Amazing how light weight yet so durable. Really cool
Glad you like it!
Beautiful boat very sturdy. I'm always surprised how large Royce is....no little dog by any means. The only one falt I would have is if you needed to escape in a hurry 9 minutes to inflate the boat. But in the real world it is a great alternative to a hard heavy "real" boat to carry. Thanks for a great demonstration and for including that safety (emergency) pack in your conversation. ❤
I would probably leave it inflated once I got my gear out for that exact reason. The kit is awesome.
A very helpful video - thank you! Will you be putting out a second video on the Forager?
A nice set up for sure!! I love the color to! Always good seeing Royce in the video's!! Thanks for sharing!! ❣❤❣
I picked this colour so I would be visible in an emergency
@@TheWildYam 😊👍
Very well presented. I carry my packraft in a drybag with backpack straps. and find it comfortable either walking or cycling.
Very interesting. I'm curious as to how it will handle in the wind. Thanks for the video.
Good question! Stay tuned
Had a bear over this morning chowing down on our crab apples. I told it that the apples are fair game but the cats aren't.
Wow! National Geographic. Lots of bears on the move this spring
Nice! 👍😃✌️
Thanks 😁
Great in depth information about a versatile packraft. Is the seat attachment adjustable or able to attach further back to paddle solo to use tandem or solo? I like the multiple attachment d rings. Looking for a ultralight boat for fly fishing.
This definitely on my short list.
Mornin..👋😎👍
Morning!
Very informational and nicely done video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
cool
I'm excited!
Perfect for camping trips on the river especially because it’s stores so much gear inside.👍
Very true!
Makes Portaging much safer, easier.
Totally!
Very nice review! I do have a phobia on sitting really low (jaws 1975..😮) same for kayaks. Would that seat be comfortable for a few hours of double blading?
Than you for your video.
As an Ex-fisherman, sailor, and boat bum, ... there's no such thing as puncture resistant. BUT! I love those dry bags.
I like the dinghy too BUT! Inflatables eh? I just don't trust them for too much besides for playing with, and drowning in.
It was the bike that triggered me, ... too many opportunities for a puncture with that thing.
Thank god I am no longer adventure oriented, .. just saying. BUT! Good luck to you eh?
If you ever find yourself caught in a strong wind in the thing, don't fight it because you'll die trying. I've learned to go with the flow and I get there fast with the wind pushing me and even when it's not to where I was originally headed.
In other words, if the wind is blowing you towards land, any land, take it and make camp until the wind dies down.
You can do battle with the wind in an inflatable, .... but seriously, it isn't worth it. Don't ask me how I know.
If the wind is blowing you towards open water and no land, ... I pray you have an anchor. Just another thing to puncture the inflatable with eh? Don't ask me how I know, ...
OK, enough of my negativity! lol, .... Have a blast BUT! Get a patch kit for sure eh?
Keep up the great fun and good luck.
Great tips! Much appreciated. I do have a small anchor as you described. I agree. No point in fighting the wind. Best to drift to shore and rest before the next adventure.
I am impressed that you are able to fit it in the bag! The whole video I was thinking....... " That boat isn't going to fit back in it's bag. "
Of course I could never get it as tight in the bag as the manufacturer but yes, very impressive!
How’s the paddle pack down? Thanks
looking forward to your review of the handling etc, and hope you will cover if you debated on the ranger instead of the forager for a single paddler, I am trying to make that decision now
Will do!
Now just find those pot hole lakes .
Can't wait!
@@TheWildYam I'll wait for you to reel in a brookie
How is this boat for solo whitewater?
I would get a smaller one for that. Just enough for gear and you. You'll have better steering capability.
Time to hit the waters
Right on!
