About This Raft

Traditional mid-size Yukon Yak model — ideal for paddlers ~5’7″–6’2″ and capable of carrying gear or game with ease.

Made of durable polyurethane-coated nylon (the material that set Alpacka apart from flimsy “pool toy” alternatives).

Lightweight & packable: these boats famously weigh under ~5 lbs and roll down small enough for backpack carry — so you can hike in and float out.

Zip-off spray deck included: great for keeping splashes off on cool days and adds versatility — detach it for lazy summer floats.

 

Perfect for:

Backcountry lakes, rivers, and wilderness routes

Alaskan and northern expeditions — where every pound counts

Backpacking + water travel combos — true packraft capability

Alpacka rafts like this were recognized for nimble handling and surprisingly good whitewater potential for their size, especially with a spray deck.

Why This Model Is Special

This isn’t a modern mass-produced inflatable — it’s a piece of packrafting history from the early era of the sport’s development. Built before the current lineup seen on Alpacka’s official site (with models like the Expedition Raft or Gnarwhal 210d Alpacka Raft), this Yukon Yak represents the classic simplicity and wilderness ethos that helped inspire today’s performance models.
