The items below are representative of the great gear we get every year from our sponsors and vendors. More great items are being donated everyday! Be sure to check them out at the event.

	Bullet Water Craft has generously donated a pair of 14' Cat tubes and two air pads to the Silent Auction! Make sure to thank them for this huge donation. The Bullet Cat combines buoyant 23" tubes with ample 27" bow & stern rise to make an agile river-running machine. Made of Bullet's 1.2 PVC coated 1100 denier fabric, the Bullet Cat is designed to stand up to commercial use on anything from Class I to Class V. Bullet's 1.2 PVC is double-layered on the bottom halves of tubes, creating a 2200 denier fabric with 2.4 mm of PVC, to resist punctures, abrasions, and daily wear. This additional layer form the first defense against rocks, sand, and obstacles. Complete with 8 2" D-rings per tube and well-placed Leafield C-7 valves, the double-chambered construction avoids the use of bladders and zippers, creating a lighter, cleaner cat targeted to today's whitewater boaters. As always, custom color options are available on tubes and wear-guards.
	DRL River Gypsies has generously donated a quality cat boat frame that works well with most 12-14 foot tubes. We've seen these frames on the river and they are awesome! Stop by their booth if you have questions and make sure to thank them for stepping up to support the festival.
