I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

DD Series 16ft Raft

DD Series 16ft Raft

Description

Experience the versatility and power of the DD Series 16ft Raft by AIRE. Whether you need a massive gear-hauler for week-long river trips or a large paddle raft, this raft has got you covered. Don't be fooled by its impressive size - thanks to its aggressive rocker profile and double diminished tubes, this raft is remarkably nimble and able to maneuver with ease through holes and waves. With the power of eight paddles behind you, nothing can stand in your way.

The DD Series 16ft Raft is constructed with AIRE's signature AIREcell technology. Urethane air bladders are encased in a rugged PVC fabric that has been reinforced along the base for added protection against potential hazards in the water. While the raft doesn't come with any thwarts, it can be easily set up with either two for use with an oar frame, dry boxes, and coolers, or four for larger paddle teams of up to eight people.

  • Ideal for high-volume rivers - Conquer big whitewater with ease
