With big (19") tubes, this "Mini" turns into a "Mighty" for those tight, small-volume, big-drop runs. Perfect as a one to two-person fishing raft, this raft will fit into your Pickup bed without deflation. The 10' Classic is also perfect for R2 trips but makes a great 3-5 person paddle raft. Its light weight makes it easy to carry to the river or portage around those shallow or challenging rapids. All SOTAR Inflatables are designed and manufactured one at a time. No other Inflatables are made with such personal care and attention.
SOTAR is a family run, custom whitewater inflatable boat manufacturer based in Merlin, Oregon in the USA. Every boat is built by hand and made one at a time. Started in 1980 and SOTAR is still flourishing 40 years later.
SOTAR’s specialty is giving white water sports lovers a boat that is custom designed to personal specifications. Color options are not the only options available. You can change design specs to fit the rivers you run and the specialized use of a raft, cataraft, or inflatable kayak.
