The Alpacka Raft EXPEDition
Alpacka Raft was born out of a 700-mile traverse of Alaska’s Brooks Range guided only by a topo-map. Expeditions are in their blood. More than just a trip, an expedition means testing your limits, pushing into the unknown, and sometimes enduring a bit of suffering on the way. Weight is at a premium, but so is performance. To be successful, you make choices between nice to have, and need to have.
The Expedition is higher performance than the Classic, but is lighter and more packable than the Wolverine. It earns its name by combining our high-performance Rally Hull with classic seating, backband, patented 4-point thigh straps, whitewater footbrace, and Alpacka’s special performance fit. The result, Alpacka Raft's most versatile packraft, for big wilderness adventure miles, weekend excursions, and your local whitewater runs—The perfect packraft for every type of trip you take.

Cargo Zipper (integrated stern TiZip®) - aka the Cargo Fly
Alpacka Raft’s innovative Cargo Zipper internal storage system comes standard on the Wolverine. The Cargo Zipper features an airtight zipper installed in the stern of the boat to allow you to store your gear inside the tubes. The system provides drier and more secure gear storage and improved paddling performance due to a lower center of gravity.
Internal Dry Bags may be purchased separately and are designed to work with the Cargo Zipper system. The bags clip in place along each side of the tubes with a side release buckle and allow for better organization and weight balance than placing the contents of your pack loose inside the Cargo Zipper. They also act as additional balanced air chambers to make it easier to get to shore in the event of a puncture.
