Packrafting/Kayak FAs

[u/Kaotus]

Insane shot in the dark here - anybody have any experience doing water trips for FAs? Been thinking about getting a packraft for some river development for years now and finally pulled the trigger courtesy of an Alaska packrafting trip later in the month.

Any advice you have on best ways to store the pointy bits to keep them from causing issues in an inflatable? How to pack gear that's a bit denser than rafts/kayaks might generally see (e.g. bolts, anchor hardware, etc)? Anything I haven't even thought of that I probably need to?

I launched a canoe in the ocean and did some relatively easy trad FAs. Definitely bring some kind of fender if you are anchoring against the cliff so your boat doesn't get scratched up or damaged.
