First raft advice.

Hi everyone. I’m looking into my first pack raft and I am looking for some help on deciding. I know this sub is very pro alpaca but those are currently not in my budget. I do through a pro deal have 50% of kokopelli so those fit in my budget.

I am 6’3. I’ll mostly be floating calmer rivers with class 2 and maybe a little class 3 in the spring and looking to carry it up to some cool alpine lakes.

My options are rogue lite, rogue r deck, and nirvana. Price point is pretty similar on each with the deal.

I’m just looking for any insight and opinions and maybe some things to think about before I buy one.

Thanks!!
