    Rope type for lace in floor?? | Mountain Buzz
    Lace-in floor river boats, often used in whitewater rafting, feature a detachable floor fastened to the main tubes with rope, allowing for easy repair, replacement, and superior self-bailing capability. These floors, often drop-stitch for rigidity, provide increased hull speed and improved hydrodynamics, allowing rafts to ride higher, turn more easily, and maneuver through technical water. 
    Key Aspects of Lace-in Floor Boats 
    • Performance: The laced design creates a "piano hinge" effect, making them some of the fastest-bailing floors, allowing for quick water drainage after tackling rapids.
    • Maintenance: Because the floor is not permanently glued to the tubes, it can be replaced or repaired without replacing the entire raft.
    • Structure: They often feature high-pressure drop-stitch floors, which provide a stiff, stable surface for fishing or handling heavy gear.
    • Popular Models: Brands like Rocky Mountain Rafts (RMR), Achilles, and AIRE often utilize lace-in systems on their self-bailing models (12' and up). 
    Lacing Installation Tips 
    1. Preparation: Inflate the raft and suspend the floor, aligning the notches on the floor with the center of the boat.
    2. Webbing: Use nylon lace webbing (e.g., from Hyside), beginning at the center and working outward, maintaining consistent tension.
    3. Technique: Use a "by-twos" method—passing through two grommets on the boat, then two on the floor—to ensure proper alignment.
    4. Finish: Soak the webbing before tightening to prevent future stretching, and use half-hitches to secure the ends. 
    This design is often favored for heavy-duty, professional, or commercial whitewater use where durability and easy serviceability are required.
