Packtach Tie-down
 Alpacka rafts are
available with an attached spray deck. This option makes your run
through whitewater much drier and warmer. The deck adds just 8 oz. to the weight of the raft
and almost no bulk - the raft still rolls down to fit in the stuff sack.
The deck is welded to the raft during construction, so you must order it
when you order your raft.
Attached Spray Deck $200
Aqua-Bound Paddles
 Aqua-Bound's
four-piece take apart paddles combine carbon fiber shafts and
blades made of injection molded abX resins reinforced with carbon fiber for superior strength and stiffness. These high-performance
paddles offer an unbeatable weight-to-toughness ratio. The
detachable blades and split shafts fit easily
inside your backpack.
 If you're paddling shallow, rocky rivers, we
suggest the whitewater
Splat paddle; this paddle is a bit heavier than the Manta Ray and will hold up
better for bashing through rock gardens. If you're paddling more open
water, the Manta Ray is lighter weight. Both
paddles are designed for maximum power and efficiency. The 210-cm. size
is the optimal length to clear the raft tubes.Splat
4-piece 210-cm. (32.5 oz.) $199
Manta Ray Carbon 4-piece 210 cm. (29.5 oz.) $185
Inflation Bag

All Alpacka rafts come with an ultra-light inflation
bag. With practice,
you can inflate your boat quickly and easily. The
inflation bag's threaded nozzle screws into your boat's
main valve, and you inflate your raft by scooping air into
the the inflation bag and "squeezing" it into the boat.
Experienced pack rafters can fill a boat in about a
minute. Constructed of Sil-nylon, the bag can be rolled
up and stuffed into your pack. Weight 3 oz. Inflation

Packtach Tie-down
 The
1.25-oz. Packtach is a simple, lightweight, and effective way to secure
a backpack or other gear to the bow of your
Alpacka. Features include:
- Center-Pull Quick Release The
Packtach uses a special, highly secure,
quick-release buckle. This buckle is
durable, doesn't release "accidentally", and can be quickly released, even
when heavily loaded.
- Tie-On Attachment We chose a
simple tie-on attachment method for the Packtach
system. Use secure knots to attach the system
to your boat's front grab
loops.
- Flat Lie When not in use, a
well-rigged Packtach lies flat on the
bow of your boat, presenting the least possible
entanglement hazard. Nonetheless, when running
brushy creeks or other water with high entanglement
hazards, you may wish to "strip" your boat of this
or anything else that could snag.
Packtach Tie-down $15
