PRODUCT INFORMATION

Expedition-Ready with Room to Spare

The 15’6” Classic ST Cataraft blends space, control, and hauling power into a single expedition-ready platform. Ideal for rowers tackling bigger water or long multi-day floats, this inflatable cataraft offers the size and stability needed for extended adventures—without losing the nimble feel SOTAR boats are known for.

Tailored for Gear Haulers and Families

With added length and refined tube design, the 15’6” ST tracks beautifully while maintaining predictable handling under load. It’s a favorite among families, guides, and outfitters who need space for passengers and supplies, but still want a smooth and responsive ride in technical water.

Customizable for Longer Expeditions

Need more space? One of the most popular upgrades is extending the 15’6” to a full 16 feet for increased capacity and spread-out comfort. Whether you're doing back-to-back days on remote rivers or loading up for family day trips, the Classic ST 15’6” delivers the durability, balance, and performance to go wherever the current takes you.
