Agree.. 340, 3435, 343. I also got the MRS X2 in green. very nice. Definetely going for something dark green and stealthy. Was actually thinking about which colour to build the next one in.. Having to finish the black one though. Might go for camoflage. but the green would probably be my first choice if offered.

Hello,
I vote the 350 or 363. Hope that my laptop display will not fool me 🙂
Generally all three columns from right looks best for me. Left side is not very natural on my screen.
Btw with my blue packraft I found an interesting thing. In digital photos it looks much brighter compared to real world eye view.

Something like Pantone 342/3425, 343, 357 would suit me. Something dark and stealthy rather than light and bright. Alpacka and MRS both do a nice enough green. I have an MRS X2 in green which blends into the scenery on the bank.
I understand that complementing the other primary colours is an option to consider, but I imagine that most peope…[Read more]

I will be making a boat for my son in March, from camo as that’s what he chose. For my own boat, which I will make straight after his, I would like a dark forest or olive green. Something which blends into the forest when the boat is pulled up on a river bank.
Is there any chance of getting such a colour in stock?

What an excellent inflatable floor. I wouldn’t want it self-bailing in the UK climate, but I plan to start my two rafts in March and will definitely incorporate this.
Thanks for the info and photos.

Yes, that’s the one. I’m in the process of bodging up a fix with some PVC waste pipe to slide over the whole length, and some silicon tubing to make a collar around the hot end. It will end up very strong and usable, but will still be a bodge and I really can’t recommend it.

I’ve just tested this iron after adding a set screw to hold the Clover shoe, and broke the handle in half. Didn’t push down at all hard either.
I do not recommend this iron.

Hallo, I orderd first also an packraft-plan from matt, idea was buy fabric from extremtextile and made a raft. First start with the free seat and the tafetta TPU, terrible project. Orderd stronger material 270 den TPU from extremtextile in different collors to try, same result. Good thanks Matt startet with own precuted Kit 2, well heureka it…[Read more]
