RMR Frames
Rocky Mountain Rafts (RMR) frames are designed specifically for Rocky Mountain Rafts but are also compatible with boats from other raft manufacturers. RMR frames, manufactured in Fayette County, West Virginia, are designed and built by boaters with quality, durability, and affordability as our mission.
Each RMR raft has a specifically designed RMR frame to fit. You can purchase everything you need to get on the water rowing, in one package or a-la-carte.
Mounting Systems Available:
- Center-mount frames are by far the most common for private boaters. Because the rower sits in the middle of the raft, they are closest to the pivot point of the boat, making it much easy to quickly turn.
- Stern-mount frames place the rower at the very back of the boat. While this does make it more difficult to change directions, it opens up a lot of space for paddlers in the front of the boat. If you plan to have a boat full of paddlers, but still want the benefits of guiding with oars, a stern-mount is the frame for you.
Components and Construction:
- We use a 6063 T6 Schedule 40 anodized aluminum, also known as the architectural aluminum. T6 indicates that the material was heat treated. This process make the metal on your raft frame harder and less likely to warp under load. Anodized aluminum has a hard outer layer that is created by submerging the metal in an electrolytic solution. This outer layer is resistant to rust and corrosion.
- Our RMR raft frames are accompanied by Speed-Rail Fittings by Hollaender. These fittings are high-strength and corrosion resistant, and allow for quick adjustments to be made.
- When building our Rocky Mountain Rafts frames, we bend the outside corners. This process is more time consuming than simply using fittings on the corner, but it results in a stronger, more rigid frame.
