Advanced Elements PackLite+ Packraft

The PackLite+ allows you to remove specific components like the floor or seat to shed weight when you are on shorter trips or need to prioritize a lighter pack. This flexibility lets you customize the boat's configuration based on the specific demands of your backcountry route.

While standard inflatable floors are lighter, the drop-stitch floor provides a rigid, flat surface that significantly improves tracking and stability. It makes the boat feel much more like a traditional kayak and less like a pool toy, which is essential if you are paddling longer distances.

Yes, the Tizip is a high-quality, air-tight zipper designed specifically for waterproof gear storage. As long as the zipper is fully closed and maintained properly, it will keep your equipment protected from water ingress during transit.

With a length of 119 inches and a 600-pound capacity, it can accommodate two people, but it will be a snug fit. It is best suited for shorter excursions or trips where you are comfortable being in close proximity with your paddling partner.

The packraft includes a dedicated pump, making the inflation process straightforward and efficient. While it takes a few minutes to get everything set up, the process is intuitive and doesn't require any special tools beyond what is included in the kit.

This boat is designed for backcountry adventures, meaning it excels on calm lakes, slow-moving rivers, and protected waterways. It is not intended for whitewater or heavy surf, so stick to flatwater environments to ensure safety and longevity.
