Self-Bailing Whitewater
The MRS Viking Self Bailer is built on the Alligator XXL Pro hull, the largest platform in the MRS whitewater lineup. The extra hull volume delivers ample buoyancy for the self-bailing design. The floor features 11 drainage holes plus a baffle plate at the bow that reduces water inflow, letting paddlers tune the resistance to suit their style. A half-cover adjustable inflatable floor with a low center of gravity pairs with an adjustable inflatable footrest — both can be extended or shortened to fit the paddler. An EVA foam backrest is included as standard equipment.

Internal Storage Bag (ISS Models)
Available on Viking Self Bailer ISS models only.
Instructions for Use
1. Put equal weight within each storage bag on either side. As the bags cannot be accessed until deflation, only store items which do not require on-the-water access.
2. Put the luggage into the storage bag, fold the top of the bag, tighten the storage bag as much as possible, and then insert the buckle at the top opening.
3. Open the Tizip and put the storage bag inside the packraft tubes.
4. Unfasten the buckle at the top of the bag after the storage bags are inserted into the tubes, pass the buckles through the two tie downs and re-fasten the buckle.
Tie down fixings within the tubes can be used to fix the storage bags in place. This ensures that even as the packraft moves, the storage bags will not slide back and forth.
