We usually take approximately 8-10 people per boat on the Yellowstone. Perhaps you have a group of 4-6 people that want to be in their own raft?

A smaller boat gives a more exciting ride as each paddler is closer to the water and more involved in controlling the boat.

Smaller boats give a bigger ride!
