The FR385XL extra heavy-duty inflatable raft is designed for versatility, making it ideal for large fly fishing expeditions or tackling rocky rivers with whitewater rapids.

The FR385XL features five air chambers: four in the hull and an additional air floor chamber, providing enhanced buoyancy and stability. It also includes upgraded rod holder mounts, compatible with popular Scotty or Railblaza accessories, allowing for easy attachment of rod holders, cup holders, fish finders, tables, and more.

Built with all the features of the smaller FR380DG raft, the FR385XL offers extra width and a more robust 150mm drop-stitch floor (compared to 80mm in the FR380). The increased width translates to more interior space and greater load capacity, while the thicker floor enhances rigidity and support, making it the ideal choice for anglers and adventurers who need both durability and comfort on the water.

Quick Tip! Worried about puncturing the air floor with a fishing hook, dog claws or sharp object? Get a piece of vinyl flooring or rubber mat from your local hardware store. Cut the vinyl to fit inside the boat, over the floor and your air floor will be almost indestructible! When deflating, just roll it up along with the boat for future use.
