I flipped and my buddy picked me up in his 143R and let me row to chase down my raft.
I immediately noticed the difference and bought one as soon as could afford it.
I’ve used her as a gear boat and a paddle crew multiple time and she’s strong at both.
10 years later my 143R is still going strong and we’re adding a second to our family this week.
It’s got enough room to run multiple setups for big water, fishing trips, and kid friendly runs.
There’s literally nothing she can’t do.
I’ve only had 2 issues. The floor bladder blew a seam and a chamber valve started leaking.
Both were super easy to repair and customer service were very informative and helpful.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
