The shallow-water performance of the flat nose River Rat matched with the performance and convenience of a step transom.
Our patent-pending I-Beam ribs are a crucial piece of the foundation of this boat. This innovative design creates exceptional strength and virtually eliminates flex in rough water. I-Beam rib technology is one of many reasons we confidently stand behind our products, because they continue to pass every test.
Havoc’s step transom design adds several befefits to the hull. It moves flotation foam compartments to the outside, freeing up storage space inside the boat. The steps also provide an easy place to get in and out of the boat, which is a huge benefit when you’re wading, boating with kids, or loading a dog.
The FRRST model comes standard with 4′ Bow Rails, giving your passengers an extra grab bar to hold onto. The bow rails are also useful for guiding the boat when you are walking along side it, such as hiding your boat during the hunt or turning it around at the sandbar.
Flat Front | Step Transom
The flat nose River Rat is built for navigating river channels and handling shallow water with ease. The FRRST includes a step transom for better rear flotation and added convenience for stepping in and out of the boat from the water – plus it moves the motor to the outside of the floorplan, giving you more surface on the rear deck to use as a fishing platform. The flat bottom hull is built for a jet motor as well as a prop motor. As you would expect, we’ve considered every detail when it comes to strength and performance. The foundation of the FRRST includes our I-Beam longitudinal ribs for superior support between the keels, diamond-plate aluminum floor, and the overbuilt design goes all the way up to the heavy duty T-Lock gunnel rails. This heavy-duty River Rat is built to handle rock bottom rivers and support larger motor sizes.
The FRRST is also available in a Side Console model.
