Standard Raft Notes
Everybody's Happy: All types of rafters can ride in the standard boat. As a paddle leader, you can sit in front and meet the waves head-on; or you can sit toward the back, next to the guide, and enjoy the canyon scenery and not get quite so wet.
Kids' Note: This is a great raft for kids as they have two fun options: 1) Sit in back, yelling out paddle commands, and laughing as the water dumps on the people in front, or 2) Sit in the front, taking on the waves as the "hood ornament" (a great picture for the Christmas card!). With either option the kids have the most secure spot in the raft as they are flanked on each side with adult paddlers.
