NRS Public Safety R130 Rescue Raft

Built For Professional Swiftwater Rescue
Designed to perform in challenging environments, the NRS Public Safety R130 Rescue Raft meets the expectations of trained swiftwater teams who rely on responsive gear. Constructed from advanced-formula PVC material using welded seams, it provides high abrasion resistance, excellent air retention, and long-term durability. The 4" thick drop-stitch floor and 7.75" x 10.5" thwarts inflate to 8-10 psi, creating a stiff, stable platform even under dynamic conditions. Four outer chambers, a drop-stitch floor, and two thwarts deliver reliable buoyancy in turbulent water.

Purpose-Built For Demanding Conditions
Each chamber is equipped with a pressure relief valve to prevent over-inflation and structural stress. Reinforced frame wear patches on top of the tubes and extra material along the bottom improve ruggedness. The raft features floor slots and strategic D-ring placements for lowering and positioning during technical rescues. Interior foot cups and handles provide secure bracing points for paddlers navigating debris-filled waters. With capacity for six paddlers, it can also be rigged with a rowing frame and motor mount for alternate operations.

Versatile, High-Visibility Performance
Eighteen stainless steel D-rings and fourteen carry handles provide ample tie-down and portaging points. Reflective patches and high-visibility fabric stand out in low-light or chaotic conditions. The Batten Attachment Thwart system allows quick removal of thwarts when switching between team transport and gear-carrying mode. A zippered floor pocket encloses the drop-stitch floor insert, reinforced with 4000 denier PVC on the bottom and 1000 denier PVC on top. Comes equipped with Leafield valves, a high-pressure inflation pump, and a repair kit for fast deployment and maintenance in the field.
