I used these extensively in South Africa and Namibia, they're cheap, cheerful, manouverable, tough and easy to pack, seen anything like it in the UK ??

Loads over in Song of the Paddle land, folders and inflatables, linkylinklink (http://www.songofthepaddle.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=43) and ebay too!

Cheers fella....the problem TBH was price as it's something that's not gonna get a monumental amount of use.
I actually contacted the manufacturer in SA and he's now got a bloke over here doing distro, so all is good !!

Perhaps try one of these, lightweight (5lb 8oz, lifts on the little finger!) packs small, yet is extremely tough (made from the fabric used to make spacesuits) expedition proven!
Have a look at the Alpacka Raft thread, its the boat now called the Fjord Explorer.
