Boat Build - The River Rat Pro Series Drift Raft

In this video, we unbox and build the River Rat USA Pro Series drift raft. I share tips on how to make the build easy and why I chose this raft over the competition. Huge shoutout to Outdoors Podcast for helping produce and edit this video.

I immediately noticed the Chacos!

"Leave em loose then tighten em up"....just like tuning a drum babyyy!

Can't wait to start writing on that purdy red frame 👀👀

Absolutely a great raft and easy to maneuver out on the river and can handle some rapids as well. Isn’t tippy at all and plenty for room for big guys too. Very well built and a super cool thing is you can get a trailer for it around 1300.00 from wholesale marine, fits this raft perfectly. Maybe one of the most important things is the customer service from these guys . They are on top of it. We have our second rat coming and guide with them day in and day out on our rivers here in WNC. Very affordable and easy to row and skims water like a champ .

Wow man what a sick boat!! I hit the sub. Looking forward to seeing some adventures you have in that thing. Tight lines from your neighbor up north!

Congrats, I bought my first raft last year, a Watermaster Bruin it’s awesome . I leave it put together in the garage, and whenever I look at it I get happy…

I don't know why but I flinch every time you call your raft a boat... I know it's still a boat, but it's a raft! 😂

Finally got around to watching. Looks like a slick rig.. Good company on the assembly!! Did AJ help at all or just film? Haha

She's looking steady there. We are running River Rat boats as well.

I'm thinking of getting one and was wondering it you went self-bailing or not, and why? Would you do it again? Thanks for the video

Awesome! Just subbed from TN! Seems like our channels have similar interests! Love it!

The shoe change comment got me. LOLOLOL! Next investment...an electric pump.

That looks like a lot of fun! Can't wait to smoke some stogies and rip lips!

How is the stability? Is it tippy?

Also, is the floor self bailing or does it stay dry.

Lots of questions!!!!
