NRS Neutron Packraft

Our most advanced self-bailing model, the NRS Neutron Packraft, arrives whitewater ready. Vertex Pro outfitting delivers game-changing advances in river-running safety with three-point thigh straps, integrated throw rope, and quick-release backband for technical control and on-person access during portages. Ultra-durable 210D and 840D TPU-coated nylon construction resists abrasion and maintains air retention, while RF-welded seams with interior taping create fail-proof bonds. The self-bailing floor continuously releases water to improve manoeuvrability in splashy conditions, and the TIZIP® stern closure provides fully waterproof storage for multiday expeditions. Lightweight yet capable—Standard model weighs 8.86 lbs (11.86 lbs rigged) with a 375 lbs load capacity. Custom aluminium D-rings, internal lash tabs, and nylon webbing loops secure gear safely. Easily repairable TPU-coated fabric extends product life in the field. Includes packraft, seat, Vertex Pro backband with throw rope and bag, three-point thigh straps, inflation bag, blow tube, and repair kit. 3-year retail warranty (1-year on TIZIP closure). Inflate with a pump for optimum pressure on heavy loads or big water.

What’s Included:
Packraft, seat, and Vertex Pro backband with throw rope/bag.
Vertex Pro three-point thigh straps.
Inflation bag and inflation blow tube.
Repair kit.

Note: Long exposure to the sun and high temperatures can increase air pressure, leading to overinflation. Overinflation can damage seams or worse. We suggest bleeding off air pressure or fully deflating the packraft and seat in these conditions.
