SOLD - Alpacka Caribou bike carrying packraft

Post by JohnClimber »

With the rule (like bikes) one in one out....

I'm selling my Alpacka Caribou, it was my first packraft but now with lack of use and a new one in my sights it's time for it to go

£375 gets you
The original hade made American bike packing packraft in it's very popular original grey colour.
It's inflation bag, large comfortable seat/cushion with fixing point, outer carrying bag, a retro fitted skeg plate and skeg to help keep it on the straight and narrow.
Plus free delivery to mainland UK.

https://www.alpackaraft.com/products/caribou
As it is from the states it's $900 (plus duty, carriage and taxes) if you want to wait
Or $925 (plus duty, carriage and taxes) for a ready to ship model https://www.alpackaraft.com/products/caribou-rts

Or if you order from Backcountry Scotland https://backcountry.scot/product/alpacka-raft-caribou/
But both colours are out of stock (so the internet says)

Normally these have a long lead time, or the import duties, carriage and taxes buying from the States puts people off.

Here it is in overnight bikepacking mode in the Lake District during the first year of Covid

I've used it several times since then as well and it's as good as new**

**Please see the photos, as there is one repair which I did several years ago and its 100% sound and airtight.
I've used it on many adventures since this repair and it's as good as new, plus it's out of sight too.

All in £375 posted, yours ready for next weekend :-bd
