The S-rig is a very proven motor craft design in Grand Canyon. Most of the commercial outfitters are running the S-rig, which all have slightly different frames and box technology. Ceiba’s S-rig is totally adaptable to carry your party of 16, or rigged as an equipment hauler. It is an excellent boat to support paddle boats, a gaggle of kayakers, or family/friends that want a safer ride. Ice – not a problem on the 37 ft!
