The Gaia 4.x DUO [Expedition version] is equipped with a denser 420 double-layered fabric and two air compartments.
With just one boat, you can do everything.
GAIA 4.0 is the world's first 3-in-1 packraft, the most versatile inflatable kayak that revolutionizes the inflatable kayak world. Thanks to its modular deck and a bottom that you can make self-draining whenever you want, this packraft is ultra-versatile. It allows you to navigate all your spots, with total freedom. Like all JAWS Packrafts, it is also compact, ultra-light, and highly durable.
The self-bailing Packraft is ideal for Class 3+ river use. We install 16 drainage holes in the bottom canvas, located at the front and rear of the boat.
Any water that may enter the Packraft in white water is then quickly evacuated through these drain holes. This feature includes 16 waterproof screw-on plugs* (+ 4 replacement plugs) allowing you to return your Packraft to its dry configuration whenever you want.
The boat is equipped with a full mattress perfectly suited to rapid water evacuation and to isolate the paddler from water that may be at the bottom of the boat.

The 4.x version is designed for long expeditions, where reliability, self-sufficiency, and comfort are essential. With its optimized volume, modular options, and proven durability, it supports long-distance adventurers across all terrains—from remote rivers to vast wilderness. A packraft built for commitment and endurance.
In open mode with the drainage holes sealed, the GAIA by JAWS transforms into an ultra-versatile packraft—perfect for calm water adventures or long-distance expeditions. Comfortable and spacious, with no self-bailing system, it keeps the interior dry while providing plenty of room to move. An ideal setup for paddling light, far, and for extended periods.
The GAIA in its self-bailing version is designed for technical routes and challenging conditions. Its draining floor and ultra-fast water evacuation system automatically clear out any water that enters, ensuring a lighter, more responsive ride. It's the ideal choice for whitewater enthusiasts who want to stay in control—even in the most intense sections.
The GAIA is equipped with a full deck designed for the most demanding conditions. Fully zippered and fitted with a waterproof spraydeck, it provides optimal protection against splashes, wind, and harsh weather. Perfect for intense expeditions and river runs, this deck transforms your packraft into a true cocoon of safety and performance.
The JAWS packraft is designed to tackle multiple disciplines and push boundaries. Lightweight, durable, and highly versatile, it adapts effortlessly to any situation—whether you're navigating rivers, crossing lakes, carrying it over land, bikepacking, or heading out on demanding expeditions. It’s the ultimate adventure multitool, ready to go wherever your journey takes you, no matter the conditions.
What sets the packraft apart is its exceptional compactness, making it the ideal watercraft for outdoor expeditions. Once folded, it fits easily into a backpack, leaving room for the rest of your gear. Unlike rigid kayaks or canoes, it requires no trailer or roof rack and can be carried on foot, by bike, or even on public transport. This ultra-compact format allows you to combine hiking, mountaineering, cycling, or exploring with paddling—unlocking entirely new possibilities for adventure.
GAIA 4.0 is the world’s first 3-in-1 packraft to offer this level of versatility. A true revolution in the inflatable kayak world, it adapts to any situation with its modular deck and convertible self-bailing floor. Fully equipped, it lets you navigate anywhere—lakes, rivers, or whitewater—with complete freedom.
At JAWS, every detail matters—including environmental impact. Our packrafts are made with 100% recyclable and fully repairable TPU fabric. Strong, durable, and eco-designed, it extends the life of your craft while reducing its footprint. A responsible choice with no compromise on performance.
