In the last year SOTAR has been working hard to develop a new concept of raft that builds upon a fusion of design specs. The specs were simple: build a raft that is maneuverable, stable, and most importantly lightweight with the ability to run a variety of whitewater from class V waterfalls to hike in expeditions. The results of this took SOTAR’s COO Jeremiah Lewman down the rabbit hole of boat design and he came out with a design that refines some already existing concepts of boating into a wholly unique design at the moment in rafting.
The SOTAR Rogue is certainly a purpose-built craft with hard whitewater, r2ing, big hikes to put in, and ease of transportation in mind. So far, I have logged a lot of miles of Class V on this boat from Cherry Creek and Golden Gate in California to The Upper Yough and Gauley Rivers back east and my overall impression has been largely positive about the boat. This boat certainly represents a new generation of boats that may be coming to the forefront and hopefully manufacturers take note on some of the perks of this design that I will discuss in more detail in the full review: www.raftingmag.com/rafting-ma...
