NRS Oxbow 85 New personal watercraft

[Treefrog]

I just ran across this raft while checking out the NRS website. A new personal watercraft from NRS. It looks like a competitor to the Outcast Stealth Pro except it has a mini frame with "real" oars. https://www.nrs.com/nrs-oxbow-85-pe...4FvnMS7TGKP8OyM6DLxd4RkLk5tiNVyDOoscl8iI3Ch_4

looks pretty cool if you're fishing moving water with regularity!

Looks fun. Gotta chuckle at that goofy little non-waterproof hard side box though.

Yeah. I wonder what the demand will be for it… particularly at the $1745 price. Love the frame though.

 

[clarkman]

Well, water masters aren't cheap either. Seems more in line price wise with that.

True. I guess I was looking at it more like a Stealth Pro in terms of design. But I prefer an open front boat like that for lakes personally. Years of fishing out of a fish cat clearly had me prejudiced. Ha.

Ah, yes. That is one boat (my stealth pro) I'll be holding onto!

Yeah, if I'm the boss that thing is gone next version...or even quicker. Unless they are getting a nice kickback from YakAttack.
Just seems very un-NRS like.
