The RuckRaft® is a simple, portable two piece kit to transform all your gear into a raft you can easily tow while swimming. It is light, tough, practical and all designed, safety tested and made in the UK exclusively by AboveBelow®.

We have made a few design tweaks for RR2 including bigger tabs for the straps so that each strap can comfortably stand up to 35kg of force (5 stone). There is an extra 20cm to the big vertical strap to support larger volume loads. A neoprene strip for a better seal on the dry bag.

Purpose built to carry anything you need, anywhere. The streamline design and superior buoyancy means the RuckRaft® glides across the water with minimum drag, even when fully loaded with up to 20kg of weight.

Built from tough, marine grade materials with dependable YKK clips, webbing and definitely no zips (always the first thing to degrade, especially around salt water, sand, grit etc).

And it all packs down into a small, 1Kg package to fit easily into any day sack.
