When Lives Depend on YOu
You Depend on the Ultimate Inflatable Boat
We built the Waterwog Rescue Series from the patented CREATURE CRAFT inflatable raft platform. A platform that is so unique, many people and professionals have called it "the safest boat in the world." Leveraging an innovative self-righting design, the Waterwog is also the most diverse inflatable rescue boat available.
The key trait of all CREATURE CRAFTS is that they can be rolled back to an upright position while remaining seated in the boat. This is achieved with the aid of the patented roll cage design which limits the boat from settling upside down. The roll cage also helps protect the crew from rocks and other objects when the boat is on its side; though you must always be aware of your surroundings. After many years of development and testing the CREATURE CRAFT is the safest rescue boat available.

Ultimate Inflatable Rafts For Epic Whitewater
Are you ready to up your game? Ready to make that jump to class V or V+ rapids that you never thought possible in your round boat or cat? Discover the next step in the evolution of rafting, the ultimate inflatable raft for whitewater. Paddling or rowing a CREATURE CRAFT provides one the opportunity to raft rivers once considered unrunnable. In some instances, the CREATURE CRAFT is the only way you can even consider putting on the river.
CREATURE CRAFT was born from the desire to run big powerful whitewater. Experienced river runners know how fun and nerve-wracking some rapids are by nature. CREATURE CRAFTS help to calm some of those nerves because unintentional swims are rare. So after the past decade of running some of the world's most extreme rivers, the CREATURE CRAFT Crew has even developed some tricks. "Doing tricks" is certainly possible in a CREATURE CRAFT. Back-flips, barrel rolls, endos, pirouettes, and colossal life-changing surfs are all waiting just downstream!
Self Righting System
Traditionally, with whitewater rafting, flipping guarantees a swim for the crew, exposing them to the elements and potential injury.
The key trait of all Creature Crafts is, with proper technique, they can be rolled back to an upright position while remaining seated in the boat.
Patented Inflatable Roll Cage
In a Creature Craft, the potential for a swim is greatly reduced as the paddler/oarsman rides in a seat with a lapbelt. The roll cage design provides a protective enclosure even when upside-down. The roll concept is similar to that of a whitewater kayak. If the boat capsizes, there is the possibility to perform a roll while remaining inside the boat, often continuing down the river barely missing a beat.
Designed for Commercial And Private Use
“Low Head Dam” operations are traditionally one of the most dangerous environments a swimmer, boater, or rescuer can face. With the use of a Rescue Craft, the catastrophic possibility of putting a rescuer into perfect terminal hydraulic is mitigated. This creates an effective safe alternative to putting rafts or other water craft into a low head dam.
Quick Release Seat
Every seat has a quick release system which allows a paddler to quickly unstrap if necessary. Nevertheless, like with whitewater kayaks, it is usually to the paddler’s advantage to remain inside the boat and roll it as soon as possible.

It’s the World’s Ultimate Inflatable Boat!
We design our inflatable rafts and rescue boats in beautiful Colorado. Our headquarters may call Delta, Colorado home, but our reach is global. Darren and Kristi custom build each boat at our facility in Delta; however, our team is always looking for a new adventure. We are always running our boats on the most challenging rivers we can find, from the waters of the Rio Baker, Chile, to the Low Head Dams in the mid-west. The world is our testing center, our playground, and our next adventure. Get in contact with our team, and we'd be happy to give you a demo in your nearest body of water.
