TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Our packrafts are handcrafted in our workshop, based in the south of France, between the Drôme river and the Vercors mountains.
CONSTRUCTION
We don’t use a drop of glue to stick our boats together: each piece of fabric is completely welded to the rest using high frequency welding, a technology capable of giving the best results in terms of strength and durability. Each weld is actually stronger than the fabric itself.
MATERIALS
In its Air version, the sidewalls of George are made of 210 denier high tenacity nylon with a single coat of TPU. The floor is 840 denier nylon with a double TPU coating, which is extremely resistant to abrasion.
In its Classic version, the sidewalls of George are made of 210 denier high tenacity nylon with a double coat of TPU. The floor is 840 denier nylon with a double TPU coating, which is extremely resistant to abrasion.
In its Armor version, the sidewalls of George are made of 420 denier high tenacity nylon with a double coat of TPU. The floor is 840 denier nylon with a double TPU coating, which is extremely resistant to abrasion.
Our packrafts are fitted with D7 Leafield valves, the most robust and durable valve around. The D7 therefore has a lifetime warranty. Our cushions come with one way, low profile, valves that have a quick deflation tab.
INTERNAL STORAGE (OPTION)
Are you heading out on a multi-day expedition and need to carry lots of gear and provisions? The internal storage system will allow you to keep it all inside your boat, safe and dry. This will also free up space on the front of the packraft for extra gear such as your bike.

HOW TO CHOOSE MY PACKRAFT ?
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 your gear (tent, sleeping bags, backpack…) safely. Think about it like turning your packraft into a giant dry-bag. You have over 150L to store your kit. 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 who go on expeditions for several days or weeks and need to bring a large quantity of equipment and provisions. It is also really usefull during bike-rafting outings where the front of the packraft is already occupied by your bike. During day trips, it is not so essential, but simplifies life.
Please remember that the Tizip needs to be treated delicately and cleaned regularly following the manufacturer’s instructions. Because of this, it is excluded from our warranty, like other manufacturers. If you zip is damaged or dirty it will leak slightly. In conclusion, if you are 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 or Plus. The choice will depend on both your heigh as well as how much gear you plan to carry. If you are taller than 1.80 or you plan to bikeraft frequently, then the Plus size will be best for you. In other cases, opt for the Standard.
Available colours to choose from:
– Yellow & Black (Classic fabric)
– Grey & Black (Classic fabric)
– Blue & Black (Air fabric, 30€ extra)
– Yellow, Orange, Red & Black (Armor fabric, 125€ extra)
It is also possible to completely customise the look of your boat, by adding a 50€ surcharge. Until our e-shop is modified, please state your desired colours in the comments when you order.
We build our packrafts to your design and therefore have limited stock. Our lead time can vary from one to five months but is subjected to the current volume of orders. If you would like to find out the exact delay, please give us a call. In any case, if you have a trip or expedition coming up with a cut-off date, it’s best to order as early as possible!
