Approach Fishing Series Rafts
Easy-to-transport, lightweight Approach Series rafts are designed to travel in the bed of a truck or on the roof of a car or SUV. With best-in-class buoyancy, Approach Rafts open up access to headwaters and remote streams other boats can’t reach.

The one person approach looks pretty comparable to an outcast or watermaster (it is a couple of inches narrower). It looks like the slipstream might be a more capable raft (wider) if you are rowing heavier water. The lack of talk could be because they cost twice as much. Does seem to have nice features though.

Talking to myself again, I asked a local shop about it, and their answer was that it is more of a flycraft competitor (also mentioned that people usually sell their flycraft and get something wider/bigger), and they thought it was pretty narrow for Oregon rivers. Tubes are also smaller than an Outcast commander.
I think I was really interested in it because of the frame, the dry box seat, anchor setup, and rod holders look pretty slick.
