    SOLD NRS Slipstream 96

    Actually, it's a 1986 Land Rover Santana Series 3(a?). Just like a standard S3, but with some Santana specific improvements (LH drive, "nicer" interior, etc)? That's actually funny. My kid turned 15 last week and I suddenly realized he'll be driving and on my insurance next year! Starting...

    SOLD NRS Slipstream 96

    I have been incredibly impressed with this raft. Stable and dry. I'm sure I'm going to regret selling it, but it just doesn't make sense with a new (to me) Clacka sitting in my driveway now.

    Pass Lake 5/19/24

    My son and I were there on Sunday too. As we were launching our raft, I noticed two guys pulling their old boat out. I nodded howdy but got the stink eye from them. Anyhow, they looked a little shady to me and after they were out and pulling away, I noticed an electric trolling motor hanging...

    Streamlining my boat options - NRS Slipstream 96??

    I have had my Slipstream 96 out five times thus far--four days on the Yakima and one day on a lake. Overall I'm pretty happy with it. Very maneuverable and quite stable. A lot heavier with a lot less room than my old Flycraft (v1), but SO MUCH MORE STABLE. My 14-year old caught his first...

    Decked truck bed drawer system

    I have a Decked System for my 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD. We used it while we were full time traveling in our RV (2016-18). I also had (and still have) a cap on the truck. After we settled down I kept the drawer system installed for a few months, but eventually pulled it out because the loss of...

    Pass Lake green?

    It's been really green since they opened it back up. It was fishing really well in December, but I haven't fished it since it cooled off in early Jan.

    Book recommendations?

    This whole series was great...total popcorn for the brain, but so entertaining I couldn't put them down. I'm hoping there's another installment (🤞) it's been four years since he released #8.

    Streamlining my boat options - NRS Slipstream 96??

    For what it's worth, I've only assembled my 96 Deluxe and sat in it in the garage, but 8'ers felt about right to me. I think that 7'ers would feel too small. I'm 5'10". Yes, could def stow a 1 piece onto side of frame...might be janky, but doable.

    Streamlining my boat options - NRS Slipstream 96??

    I picked up a Slipstream 96 a few weeks ago. Haven't unpacked it yet, but pretty excited.
