The new Saturn Triton Outfitter KaBoats have been a huge hit and preorder inventory is going fast. The new Triton models are arriving soon and are available for preorder now! The Triton Series upgrades for 2024 represent our largest ever upgrade package and include over $500 additional value over the standard heavy-duty series. The Triton upgrades offered for the 16' Saturn Outfitter KaBoat include our heavy-duty 35 OZ Suijia 1.2mm 2000 Denier PVC ($300 value and nearly 50% thicker than our Standard model), UK imported Leafield D7 inflation valves ($150 value), diminished tube elevated 8" bow design ($100 value), fiberglass coated marine grade plywood transom ($50 value), 2000 cc capacity 7.2psi barrel pump ($50 value), and an extended 3-year warranty. These Triton series improvements incorporate the newest technologies in inflatable boat construction and provide an incredible value for those looking to put their boat to the test. If available, this option will be listed under the "Model" selection.

15' Saturn Triton Outfitter KaBoat (TRSK470XL)

The new models also include extra-large 20" diameter tubes, 4 exterior tube chambers (vs. 2 in the standard 16' Saturn KaBoat), and a very spacious interior. The extra large, 20" diameter oversized tubes and an extra wide interior make the TRSK487XL KaBoat perfect for law enforcement, military operations, and explorer expeditions (we put two of these in the hands of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund Exploration to discover new gorilla populations on remote rivers).This model is great for remote island explorations, fun trips on the water with family, or just simple fishing adventures with friends. The Triton upgrades account for hundreds of dollars of additional value and are only available for the 2024/2025 Saturn Outfitter Series KaBoats (with Triton ugrades) on our www.saturnrafts.com and www.saturnboats.com websites!

This model is now basically identical to the 15' Saturn Triton Outfitter KaBoat but extended to provide additional interior storage and passenger capacity. The 16' Saturn Triton Outfitter KaBoat is the best overall value in our KaBoat line and comfortably seats up to 4 adults.

We've made these new improvements to provide the most versatile combination of performance, safety, stability, and portability for any boat on the inflatable boat market. These KaBoat is ready to tackle the toughest of conditions and is the boat of choice for many guides and outfitters in the remote regions of Alaska and Canada. 

This KaBoat comes with 2 sets of oarlocks and 2 sets of rowing oars for fast tandem rowing. With a 15HP 2-stroke outboard motor, this KaBoat is insanely fast with speeds above 25 mph! It handles sharp turns great and holds large waves without a problem.

If a picture is worth 1,000 words then this video showing a relative extreme upriver trip on an extremely narrow stream is priceless and truly shows what this boat can do. Check out all of the other videos our customers have shared on the video tab and you'll have a great feel for this KaBoat and how it performs with different motor sizes. This special edition KaBoat comes in 3 versions when in stock: Military Green, Gun Metal Dark Grey, or Special Ops Black.

Excellent boat! I’m running the 2024 model with a 500cc mud motor with a long tail. Which is a pretty heavy motor at around 120 lbs and it barely makes a difference in the draft of the boat this is excellent since I am running it in extremely shallow rivers. I have been using the boat for about a week so far and it is very tough with the heavy duty pvc. It has a very shallow draft with the 20” tubes which makes a huge difference in the shallow stuff, even with around 600-700 lbs of load in the boat my mud motor skeg will bottom out before the boat and usually the fin keels will barely drag along the bottom and I can push through the shallow spots with the propeller half way out of the water. The speed is pretty good with the 500cc long tail but I’m having some cavitation issues with the propeller and I’m running in pretty quick flowing rivers so it’s hard to give a good speed review. I’ll update this post when I get the cavitation issues resolved and get a speed test on a lake. Overall I’m very happy with the boat and think it will do great for Alaskan waters!
Disadvantages
When I received the boat the seats were not fitting correctly but customer service is excellent and they are getting the proper sized seats sent out to me.

Cody, wanted to share another amazing trip thanx to Saturn! As you can see my buddy also has one. Had numerous folks stop us to ask about the setup. Had never heard of Saturn but they do now. Showed them some of the pictures I've share with you so far and pointed them to your website. Also raved about how they've done for us so far. Going forward would you want me to share your number with them? Or continue to point them towards your website?

Obviously this photo doesn't show off the raft much, but it was my view for 7 hrs on the way out and wanted to share it with you. Headed out Monday for another two weeks, hopefully have some nice pics of a bull moose and/or grizz in it afterwards!

Cody, just circling back with you that proof of concept caribou trip was an amazing success. Not that I had any doubts prior to the trip, but I can out an extreme sense of confidence with my Triton raft after truly putting it through the paces. Can't thank you enough for it and looking forward to many more amazing adventures with where it will take me!
