In collaboration with professional frame builders, Catcher Craft's 12-foot self-bailing raft was designed as our premier platform to be used as a foundation for custom metal-tube, fishing-frames. Built to withstand years of hard use, the 1100-denier PVC hull construction is fully bottom wrapped in a second layer of 1000-deiner PVC. A top chafer pad is then added on for extra protection, when adding on frames.
Weighing in under 96 pounds, the XSB-366 is ready for adventure. Stout 20-inch diameter, multi-chamber tubes assure exceptional flotation, security, and a high ride in all categories of water. With a 2,600 pound load capacity, this 12ft raft will easily carry a frame, plenty of gear, and its occupants, safely to any destination for years to come.
Twelve 1.5 inch stainless steel D-rings provide ample tie-down points, to secure frames, ropes, gear, and other accessories. Drop-stitch technology, used in the floor, virtually eliminates failure experienced with old style I-beam floor construction. Drop-stitch style floors also make planting your feet securely on the deck and standing, far more secure as well as comfortable.
All Catcher Craft rafts utilize state of the art thermal-welded seam technology. We use Leafield C7 valves, which provide exceptional inflation/deflation reliability and they set the bar for industry performance.
