How did Paqualife begin?
A solution to a problem…
For us, packrafts solved a problem we had been trying to find a solution for, for years.
We had a RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) and always struggled with how we could get our small family from boat to shore safely and conveniently when anchored in a harbour. For years we used the ‘typical’ PVC inflatable tandem kayak that was almost 20kg, took up a lot of deck space, took an age to inflate and once on shore had to be left on the beach at risk of damage, being stolen or blown away. It was heavy and cumbersome and we thought ‘there must be something better out there!’.
We were after something compact, lightweight, easy to inflate and stable on the water and after some online research we came across MRS packrafts and ‘voila’, here was our solution!
Not only could a packraft solve our problem but it could open up so many more adventure opportunities – we wanted to spread the word, and so Paqualife was born!
Why buy from Paqualife?
Paqualife are proud to be a small UK family business. This allows us to provide a personalised, friendly service which is easily accessible to our customers. What’s more, we regularly use and understand the products we sell and so can advise you on which packraft best suits your needs from the extensive MRS packraft range.
Being UK based we endeavour to dispatch your order quickly and without additional import charges, unlike other packrafts purchased abroad. Custom orders made to your precise specification can take a little longer but are usually delivered within 3-4 weeks.
