At first glance, FishCraft’s SuperCat tunnel hull raft looks like one sweet fluff-chucking rig, but could it be equally at home coated in roe slime or back-trolling plugs as it is a serving as a platform for fly fishing?
The fine folks at Fish Craft (aka The Riverman Boat Works), say that the raft is part cataraft and part driftboat, combining the best of both worlds. You get the comfort of a hard floor and enclosure of a drifter while also having the forgiving qualities of a raft.

Here I am in some whitewater on the Trinity…a nanosecond before disaster struck. No, I didn’t flip the raft or anything. Worse! Check out the yellow circle. That rectangular item you see there, on its way out of the boat, is a box stuffed with Slinkies.
I watched it bob for just a moment and then down she went to the bottom of the falls. Eight dollars worth of materials and about $14,000 worth of my time…down the tube. Damn, I hate making Slinkies….
Nice work with the camera by trusty sidekick Reilly who snapped the moment of horror in action.

This is Uncle Mike trying to catch his breath during the “Why the hell are we doing this stupid trip” Portage I dragged him on a while back.
