"The Packrafting Store has provided a great website and service. And postage only been 9€ to reach the outer Hebrides in Scotland was a relief and a credit to the store to ship my Microraft to me at such low cost. I was a little anxious on receiving my boat as never seeing the product. I was well impressed with the workmanship and quality of the rafts build. Having been a sea kayaker and surf kayaker for 17 years and outdoor experience of 30 I've had my little boat packed with up to 5 days food and equipment making journey of up to 6 NM offshore in 2 meter swells including punching surf and winds of up to force 7 this little boat has performed perfectly. And am looking forward to many more journeys in my Microraft including bike rafting as the L/XL model can carry loads of 150 kg." Bennie Macdonald, Scotland
