RMR PK-159 Peak Raft

Rocky Mountain Rafts made the RMR PK-159 Peak Raft model (this was formerly called the "160") Peak primarily for Gauley River outfitters as a large paddle raft, but unlike it's smaller brother - the 134 Peak - this one has frame chafers on top so it can also be rowed. That said, keep in mind that the rocker on this model starts pretty far back at each end, so the straight/flat section of the side tubes is only about 68". Even though it is a near-16' raft, you are not going to put a three-bay frame on the Peak, and even some two-bay frames may be too big.

Rocky Mountain now has around ten color options foe most of their rafts, HOWEVER, it is extremely rare for all of them to be on hand, so let us know which one or ones will work and we can check stock.

Feedback on the Peaks has been very good in terms of the boat's handling characteristics - specifically with the 159 that it feels nimble, and like a smaller size raft. This is due to a lot of extra labor that goes into the Peak floor chamber design. This boat is engineered to have a very flat profile on the bottom, so that the river currents do not push it around like many competing rafts. Colors are somewhat limited on Peak rafts, so call or email us to check stock. The Peak is a fairly economical alternative to the U.S.-made AIRE 160DD raft, and it comes standard with four thwarts, whereas they cost an extra $359 each from AIRE. Rocky Mountain decided to forego lift handles on the sides of the Peaks since they can get in the way of paddler's hands, but that does make this a bit beastly to lug around.
