The Granddaddy of all Hippos. They just don't much get bigger than this. Extra wide outer tube diameter for a higher and drier ride. Is possible to outfit with more than 3 crosstubes.

Hippo 16SB is the ultimate alternative for commercial rafters and serious whitewater enthusiasts. We at Spreu Boat have been striving to produce the most reasonably priced rafts that can meet the strenuous demands of any commercial outfitter. This dedication has paid off. Our boats are being used by professional rafting firms throughout Europe and can be found at most of the the world’s favorite whitewater destinations.

Once again, we have improved our rafting boat series. The boats are now manufactured with Pennel ORCA® Hypalon resulting in a stiffer and faster performing craft. Each HIPPO model comes outfitted with Stainless Steel 2" D-Rings on a hypalon patch, reinforcing rubber material on the lower part of the outer tubes, anti-slick material on the upper outer tubes, Halkey Roberts Valves, and a Leafield overpressure valve in the floor.

Technical Information:

# Outer tubes and floor: 1100 dtex Hypalon®
# Gum chafer on underside of the outer tubes
# 1100 dtex Anti-Slick Hypalon® on top of outer tubes
# 4 Carry Handles
# 2" stainless steel D-Rings: 14
# tubes: 62 cm
# chambers: 4+2+1

Standard accessories:

• Repair Kit
• H.R. adapter
