Colorado-based packraft manufacturer Alpacka Raft is now offering ready-to-ship rafts as an alternative to their built-to-order lineup, complete with free two-day shipping and faster turnaround times. Check them out here…
For the first time in 20 years, Colorado-based Alpacka Raft is offering “ready to ship” rafts as an alternative to their standard made-to-order options, which can take up to four weeks for delivery. Several of their most popular packrafts are now delivered with free two-day shipping to the Continental USA plus Alaska (Anchorage and Fairbanks). Although the ready to ship rafts don’t allow for custom colors and other unique touches, they make much shorter lead times possible and are great for last-minute trips. Even international orders usually arrive in less than 10 days and are shipped UPS Worldwide Expedited.
Find a quick description from Alpacka of every ready to ship raft that they are currently offering below, complete with photos and some important specs.
