MRS Microraft Velcrodeck
A classic makes a comeback – MRS Microraft Velcrodeck!
The greatest strength of the Microraft models is their versatility. With its light weight and compact size, it’s easy to carry on adventures in your backpack, handling rough waters, calm lakes, and rivers alike.
The packraft is excellent for hikers and anglers, and also beneficial for photographers, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts. It performs well in light rapids with appropriate gear (helmet, life jacket, drysuit).
The MRS Microraft features parallel tubes, an extended rear section (stern), and a slightly upturned, pointed nose.
Spraydeck
The spray deck is what distinguishes the MRS Microraft Velcrodeck from the similar MRS Microraft Hybrid Deck.
The “Velcrodeck” is equipped with a removable spray deck that can easily be opened on both sides via Velcro fastenings. This type of deck is not as watertight as the hybrid deck but is significantly easier to use and doesn’t require the installation of a frame around the cockpit (as the hybrid deck does). You can also leave most of the deck at home in calm weather or if you need to transport a dog or child in front of you.
Fin
The packraft is delivered with an installed (and removable) fin for better tracking and higher max speed.
Size
One size fits all. However, size can be adjusted with the help of an advanced footrest. This is especially useful for shorter paddlers.
Materials
Tubes: UPN35 Nylon 210D/67T*55T 90 A Ester TPU singlecoated.

MRS are fully involved in the development process of the materials used, and has its own product development. The TPU material used exclusively by MRS is developed in close collaboration with a large American company with the aim of offering customers the highest possible quality.
ISS (Internal Storage System)
The packraft can be preinstalled with the ISS (internal storage system). ISS is essentially a TiZip zipper on the rear of the boat. You can use the zipper to store things inside the tubes of the packraft. This allows A LOT of geat to be brought on your adventures, without having to sacrifice space on the floor or bow of the boat.
MRS uses TiZips best zipper, Masterseal 10. It is pressure proof up to 500 mbar, which means it is totally safe, completely waterproof and airtight.
ISS main advantages are:
- You can store a lot of gear inside the packraft
- The things you store within ISS will always remain dry.
- Lower point of gravity makes for a more comfortable and stable ride.
- More space where you need it, e.g. where you sit.
The main disadvantage of the system is that you cannot access the gear stored inside of the ISS without letting the air out of the packraft. That is why we recommend the ISS for storing camp-related things, such as tents, sleeping bags, spare clothes, water and food for the days to come.
