The Tributary 16 HD is your expedition-sized gear hauler. Larger diameter tubes will pack a big load and the diminishing tube design makes for a splashy, wave-punching ride.

Product Details

Burly 42 oz./2000 denier PVC material takes the heavy use of a big-water multi-day boat.
The welded PVC outer shell seams and the internal urethane bladders are the foundation of this highly durable self-bailing raft.
Comes with two strap-in thwarts that can be placed anywhere in the center section.
With an optional third thwart you can put together an 11-person paddling crew.
Put a frame on the boat and you've got lots of room for people and gear for multi-week adventures.
Tough urethane bladders zipped into the outer skin hold the air. They're easily repaired in the event of a puncture.
The laced-in floor bails water quickly for safety in big water.
10 D-rings for frame and gear tiedown and four handles for an easy carry.
5-year retail warranty, 1-year commercial
