Product Details
The STAR Super Bug Self-Bailing raft allows plenty of cargo capacity and interior space to spread out, making it the boat to choose for large open rivers. The Star Self-Bailing Bug Series combines the performance of a cataraft with the convenience of a traditional raft.
- Self-bailing bugs are Star's most popular boat for commercial fishing guides and multi-day trippers looking for high capacity with low maintenance.
- Tubes constructed with 2000 denier PVC for ultimate durability.
- The overlap seam construction with 400 denier seam tape includes heat-welded inner seams and hand glued outer seams to ensure better air retention, optimal strength and unmatched durability.
- Symmetrical diminishing tube construction and a 13" raised 4000 denier PVC floor let only the side tubes touch the water, resulting in increased speed, unmatched tracking and easy rowing.
- The Bug Series' unique tube and raised floor design creates cataraft-like stability, making it harder to side flip.
- The suspended self-bailing floor supports the weight of anglers and paddlers. And since it does not hold air, it requires virtually no maintenance.
- Top-quality Leafield C7 valves ensure trouble free inflation and deflation.
- Features three removable 12" diameter thwarts with Quik-E attachment system.
- Two double reinforced nylon handles, 18 reinforced 2" stainless steel d-rings and three reinforced 1.3" stainless steel d-rings.
- 5-year retail warranty, 3-year commercial.
