description

Highly sought-after cataraft perfect for mild to wild whitewater with option to rig for multi-day trips. Over $7800 value if purchased new. Great condition - like new and ready to row (airtight, no patches, no scratches, all D-rings, handles, and seams intact). Exceptionally maneuverable in low flows so boating season can extend well into fall. Bittersweet to part with this awesome little cat, but she’s ready for her next home and new adventures on the river. TUBES: Hyside Nimbus 12.0 (Serial #HYF23001F020) purchased new in 2021. Premium quality hypalon including frame chafers, full-length urethane bottom chafers and triple-bonded seams. (These tubes are currently on backorder at most retailers.)  FRAME: Custom Nexus high-strength aluminum frame (3 bays) crafted by master fabricator John Welfelt of Delta, CO. This high-performance lightweight frame features a compound curve design uniquely suited to hug the contour of the Hyside Nimbus cat tubes. (Production of the Nexus frame is currently on hold due to supplier issues.)  CARE & MAINTENANCE:  Impeccably maintained and stored indoors (loosely rolled); treated regularly with 303 Protectant.
