- Purpose-built for stealth, the Approach fishing rafts combine smaller tubes with a thick drop-stitch floor insert to enhance buoyancy, letting it draft in really skinny water.
- 6" drop-stitch floor with a slip-resistant foam pad provides superior traction and grip when wet, reduces weight by eliminating casting platforms and protects the floor from grit and basic wear and tear.
- Ultra-lightweight design for easy transport. All Approach Rafts can fit in a standard truck bed or atop a jeep or SUV.
- Engineered for ultimate durability with welded seam tube construction and rugged PVC materials plus bottom and top wear patches.
- Adjustable Slot Rail engineering creates a modular frame that easily adjusts to keep anglers comfortable and the boat balanced for superior rowing performance.
- Ten D-rings provide tie-down points for a frame or gear.
- Three main air chambers plus the drop-stitch floor insert keep you afloat in the event of a puncture.
- Approach Dry Box seat platforms provide convenient external trays and internal waterproof storage compartments keeping gear dry, organized, and eliminating tripping hazards.
- Rower Seat and Angler Folding seats can attach to the Approach Dry Boxes.
- A Molded Thigh Hook in the bow provides additional support for the front angler and features cup holders and a storage tray.
- Internal anchor system easily controlled from the rower's seat keeps anchor line away from anglers and gear. Includes 3/8" anchor line.
- Rower’s Package (sold separately) also includes a 2:1 assist pulley, making retrieving anchors an effortless task, plus a 18 lb. Tornado anchor.
- Features high-quality Leafield™ C7 Inflation valves and six self-fabric handles.
- 5-year retail warranty, 3-year commercial.
Outdoor New England (ONE) is committed to processing all orders within 1 business day of submission. While we strive to maintain stock of all items in all sizes and colors, some selections may be temporarily unavailable due to demand or supply limitations. If this happens, our customer service team will reach out to provide alternate color choices or to discuss availability of your selected item.
Free Shipping Conditions: Orders over $99 qualify for free shipping when shipped via USPS. Oversized items—including but not limited to Rafts under 12', paddleboards, paddles—must ship via UPS and do not qualify for free shipping.
Shipping Times and Signatures
We prioritize getting your gear to you promptly and understand that timing is critical for outdoor adventures. While we work closely with shipping carriers, certain factors are outside our control. Delivery times are not guaranteed. Signatures are required for Kayak Shipments.
Kayak Shipping
Outdoor New England ships kayaks to our partner Freight Terminals to save time, reduce costs, and minimize the risk of damage. We will find a partner terminal closest to your location for pick up. If you prefer home delivery, give us a call and we can arrange it for an additional fee.
In some cases, especially for remote locations, ONE may request additional fees to cover the true shipping cost. We’ll notify you in advance and work to find the most efficient, affordable solution. Occasionally, in this instance, we may also suggest delivery to a nearby freight terminal for pick-up.
You may pick up kayaks directly at our Franklin, New Hampshire Location. Please contact Customer Service to arrange pickup. If you need to change your shipping method after placing your order, email us at info@outdoornewengland.com, and we’ll do our best to assist.
Important Note for Kayak Orders:
Upon kayak pickup/delivery, inspect the boat thoroughly before signing the received receipt. This is critical, as signing confirms the condition, and we cannot file damage claims afterward. If you notice any damage, do not sign and contact us immediately.
