Description:
An outfitter-built compact raft with diminishing tubes. The NRS E-120D Self-Bailing Raft (NRS item 85037.01) replaces the E-120. Its slightly diminished tubes open up the end compartments and allow better placement of a third thwart. Built to outfitter specs, it is surefooted in big water and nimble in technical rapids, a durable small boat for swiftwater teams and guides. Compare more rescue boats and rafts.
