MRS Microraft XL
The Microraft XL is an excellent choice for paddlers and hikers looking for a one-person packraft with extra legroom and cargo capacity. The generous cockpit allows you to bring extra gear, a bike, or several bags—and the model also works well for an adult with a child or dog. The packraft is suitable for both calm waters and gentle rapids.
The included removable canopy deck provides effective protection against cold and light rain. The canopy is attached with high-quality YKK zippers and Velcro, making it easy to get in and out of the packraft when needed.
The Microraft XL has relatively narrow tubes and a slightly upturned bow, a design characteristic of MRS packraft models that contributes to good glide and efficient paddling.
The MRS Microraft XL comes complete with inflation bag, seat, backrest, and repair kit (excluding glue).

4 reviews of MRS Microraft XL - extra long solo pack power
Great packraft! I love to be out in the outer archipelago, see the horizon, but had to sell sailboat and car due to the current interest rate on mortgages. Bought a MRS XL that I can take on the bus! Now I have been out on my first 10-day trip, Sandhamn, Möja, Stora Nassa,
Finally back! Surprisingly directionally stable when I paddle and it takes larger waves completely undramatically, as long as you do not take them from the side! The only negative is probably the height of the rig with a large pack, so you do not like to paddle upwind
Been in the mountains and paddled in still and quite rapids. It is a stable packcraft but when it gets too strong whitewater rapids, it is recommended to go with it. Also bought Anfibio wide seat which did the trick for the seat height for fly fishing from the craft. No problem to drill fish from the crafter, however, the fish pulls away with one as the crafter is very wind sensitive. Super simple, light and durable.

I am very happy with the boat. In the back of the car. Quick pump up and out where you rarely reach on foot. One detail that I wonder about! Is it normal that it releases air? Notice that it is a little slack the next morning when I go on. Sometimes 6 hours after launching. Regards Ola
