Fishing is known as a relaxing pastime, and the Raptor XL Platform, whether intentionally or not, is a fishing product that acknowledges that its extreme leisure. Whether serious fishermen will admit it or not, listless days spent with a lure in the water are sure to make one doze off every once in a while; the Raptor XL Platform is a raft with a tent built onto it, letting fishermen slip into a nap in shade and shelter rather than exposed to a bright summer sun.
Facetiousness aside, one of the biggest benefits of the Dutch company's fishing raft is that it allows fishing trips to stretch farther and deeper into the wilderness. Since the raft provides shelter in and of itself, those interested in camping along the shores of a backwoods river or creek can do so without having to worry about clearing space to pitch a tent and set up camp.
