Description
The NRS Otter 142 is NRS's most popular fishing raft but is also great for running technical rivers! The NRS Otter 142 provides the interior space, cargo capacity and maneuverability sportsmen demand. These characteristics also make it an excellent crew paddling craft. The 20" tubes and 6'6" width keep the Otter 142 floating high and maneuvering swiftly whether you are pursuing world-class trout fishing or Class IV whitewater.
The Pennel Orca material that Otter Series rafts are made out of is essentially the same thing as Hypalon, marketed under a different brand name, and it has superior abrasion and puncture resistance versus other rubbers or plastics. If this boat is well taken care of, it will easily last over 20 years. The Otter 142 is a solid investment for any boater looking for a quality raft that performs well in all areas of boating.
