SOTAR ST Classic Cat

The ST Classic Cat is built specifically for heavy-duty hauling. Its 28-inch tube diameter and 1,874-pound load capacity provide the stability and buoyancy required for multi-week gear loads that would overwhelm a standard recreational raft.

The 40oz REZCOAT Urethane is one of the most abrasion-resistant materials available in the industry. It is designed to withstand repeated scraping against rocks and debris, making it a standard choice for professional outfitters who operate in demanding, technical environments.

Yes, the platform is highly modular. With 16 D-rings, you have significant flexibility to rig custom frames, fishing seats, or gear storage systems to suit your specific trip requirements.

At 109 lbs, this is a substantial piece of equipment. While it can be managed by two people, it is designed for expedition-scale trips where you likely have a team or a trailer setup; it is not intended for quick, solo 'grab-and-go' outings.

The four air chambers provide critical redundancy. If you sustain a puncture in one section, the remaining chambers maintain enough buoyancy to keep the vessel afloat and stable, which is a vital safety feature for remote, backcountry river trips.

The 20-foot length provides excellent tracking and stability, which is ideal for hauling heavy loads through big water. However, it will have a larger turning radius compared to shorter rafts, so it is best suited for rivers where you have room to maneuver.
