01 What makes it unique
The No Boundaries NB19.3 is a family-ready, no-slide bunkhouse that sleeps a full crowd in a 24-foot-8 body. A front Murphy queen folds up into a sofa by day, opening the front into living space, and rear 44-by-74-inch double-size bunks give kids or guests full-size berths. The fold-up bottom bunk lifts to let larger gear load through an exterior Adventure Door — a garage-style pass-through few lightweights offer. A booth dinette provides ample seating for dining and entertaining, and a rear-corner bath sits at the back. A standard outdoor kitchen and a 16-foot electric awning extend living space outdoors. Nominal capacity is seven.
At 4,489 pounds unloaded and 24 feet 8 inches, the NB19.3 is still a comfortable half-ton tow despite sleeping seven, and its 1,500-pound cargo capacity is a healthy margin for a family loading water and gear. Forest River publishes a 5,989-pound GVWR for this plan directly (it equals the 4,489-pound unloaded weight plus the 1,500-pound cargo capacity exactly), so no derivation is needed. It rides on a narrower 88-inch body with balanced 30/30/30-gallon tanks. Standard equipment is the mandatory C-Series package: a 12V refrigerator, an air-fryer microwave, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, an on-demand tankless water heater, a 200-watt solar panel with a 30-amp controller and inverter prep, a central vacuum, a power tongue jack and all-terrain tires with TPMS.
Construction is the No Boundaries laminate recipe — Azdel composite panels over an aluminum frame, a block-foam-insulated aluminum floor, a sealed and heated underbelly with a radiant foil barrier and 12V tank pads, and a fiberglass front cap with LED lighting — the same construction tier as Forest River’s r·pod and a step above the metal-sided value lines. An optional Beast Mode package adds an independent suspension, 400 watts of solar and a 2,000-watt inverter. For a family that wants real double-size bunks, a convertible queen, a garage-style Adventure Door and a full bath at a half-ton tow weight with no slide to maintain, the NB19.3 is one of the most capable bunkhouses in the line.

These graphics are generated from the same verified record that builds the table above, and are published under this site’s own licence — nothing here is traced from, or derived from, a manufacturer drawing or photo. Where a figure is not published for this plan, the graphic that would need it is omitted rather than estimated. The full record is in the published dataset.
What it takes to tow this
Built from this floorplan’s verified weights. We publish the trailer side only.
We do not publish tow ratings for specific trucks. A single model can vary by thousands of pounds depending on engine, axle ratio, cab, drivetrain and package — the only authoritative figure is the one on your own door jamb. Loaded tongue percentages are industry convention for travel trailers (10–15% of loaded weight), not a measurement of this unit. Hitch classes are not used here as a rating: SAE J684 covers trailers to 10,000 lb GVWR and does not define Class V, and capacity boundaries differ between manufacturers — read the rating stamped on your hitch. On this plan the convention band’s low end fell below the published dry figure, so the range starts at the published dry weight instead — loaded is never lighter than dry.
03 Forest River No Boundaries floorplan family
Forest River’s No Boundaries (NoBo) is a rugged, adventure-lightweight travel-trailer line built “exceptionally light weight” to tow behind 4- and 6-cylinder vehicles. The NB19.3 on this page is highlighted; the other profiled plans link to their own pages. Profiled here are breadth-spanning floorplans — from the 20-foot front-queen compact to the 33-foot family bunkhouse with rear double bunks — with the rest of the roster catalogued on the line hub and profiled in demand order. Every No Boundaries plan ships with the mandatory C-Series package: a 12V fridge, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, a tankless water heater, 200 watts of solar, all-terrain tires with TPMS, a standard outdoor kitchen and an electric awning.
| Floorplan | Nominal | Sleeps | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|
| NB18.0 | 20' 0" | 4 | Front queen, central kitchen/living, rear bath — no slide |
| NB18.3 | 20' 6" | 3 | Front queen, slide-out sofa, rear bath, indoor + outdoor kitchens |
| NB19.2 | 21' 10" | 4 | Front Murphy bed, dual wardrobes, booth dinette, rear bath — no slide |
| NB18.2 | 21' 8" | 4 | Front bedroom, rear kitchen w/ bar-top flip-up window — no slide |
| NB18.7 | 21' 8" | 4 | Front queen + twin bunks, rear-corner bath — compact family bunkhouse, no slide |

Every No Boundaries plan uses superior laminated construction featuring Azdel composite panels over an aluminum frame, with an aluminum-framed floor, block-foam insulation, a sealed and heated underbelly with a radiant foil barrier and 12V tank pads, and a fiberglass front cap with LED lighting — the same construction tier as Forest River’s r·pod, a step above the metal-sided stick-and-tin value lines. The identity is rugged and adventure-focused rather than aerodynamic: every plan ships with the mandatory C-Series package (a 12V refrigerator, an air-fryer microwave, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, an on-demand tankless water heater, seamless Surf(X) countertops, a 200-watt solar panel with a 30-amp controller and inverter prep, a central vacuum, a power tongue jack, an electric awning with an LED strip, black-glass entry doors, all-terrain tires with TPMS and a standard outdoor kitchen). An optional Beast Mode package adds an independent suspension, a second 200-watt solar panel (400 watts total), a 2,000-watt inverter, a fresh-water filter and a Maxxair vent cover. Lengths, weights and equipment change with options and model year — always confirm against the unit’s own weight sticker. Additional No Boundaries floorplans are catalogued on the line hub.
04 What owners & reviewers report
Double-size bunks plus a convertible queen, no slide
Rear 44-by-74-inch double bunks give full-size berths for kids or guests, and the front Murphy queen folds to a sofa for open daytime living — a true family bunkhouse with nothing mechanical to deploy at camp.
A garage-style Adventure Door
The fold-up bottom bunk lifts so larger gear loads through an exterior Adventure Door — a pass-through cargo feature few sub-25-foot lightweights offer, useful for bikes, totes and camp equipment.
GVWR is published directly
Forest River lists a 5,989-lb GVWR for this plan (equal to unloaded weight plus cargo capacity), so no derivation is needed — a complete factory weight record.
The Murphy bed must be stowed daily
The queen has to be made up and folded away each morning to use the sofa — a minor daily chore that comes with the open-front layout.
Selling price runs below the placard
Dealer MSRP placards run near $42,000 while selling prices commonly land near $30,000–$36,000 (Beast Mode units run higher); the figure shown is dealer-typical selling and is flagged.
05 How it compares
A 21-foot-8 bunkhouse with a fixed front queen and twin bunks — lighter and shorter, with kid-sized bunks instead of the larger 44x74 doubles.
A 26-foot Murphy-bed family bunkhouse with a slide and rear double bunks, also sleeping eight — more interior room from the slide at a higher weight.
A 32-foot-11 family bunkhouse with a separate private front queen bedroom and rear double bunks — a fixed bedroom and the most space in the line at a much higher weight.
06 Loading it for a trip
This floorplan carries its water comfortably. A full 30-gallon fresh tank is roughly 17% of the 1,500-pound cargo capacity, leaving the NB19.3 with a usable gear budget even when you tow full.
| Weight budget | Figure | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Cargo capacity as published (CCC) | 1,500 lb | Everything you add: gear, water, propane, batteries, food, people’s belongings. |
| Fresh tank filled (30 gal × 8.34 lb) | −250 lb | Water is the heaviest thing most owners add, and it is added first. |
| Cargo budget left with a full fresh tank | 1,250 lb | 17% of this plan’s capacity is spent before a single bag is loaded. |
| Per sleeping position, water aboard | 179 lb | A rough share of what is left across the 7 berths this plan sleeps. |
The published dry tongue weight of 610 pounds is 14% of the 4,489-pound dry weight, which sits inside the 10–15% band usually quoted for stable towing. It is still a dry figure: loading the front pass-through and the fresh tank both push it up.
Nothing above changes the ceiling. Loaded to its 5,989-pound GVWR the NB19.3 is towing 1,500 pounds more than its 4,489-pound dry figure, and that is the number your vehicle has to be rated for — not the brochure weight.
Tank balance is generous here: 30 gallons of fresh against 30 grey and 30 black, so waste capacity keeps pace with supply and the fresh tank is the constraint that ends a dry stay.
07 Where this floorplan sits
Ranked by GVWR, the NB19.3 sits 7 of 17 in the Forest River No Boundaries line: 5,989 pounds against a line that runs from 4,855 to 8,253 pounds. That position is the useful thing to know, because the plans immediately either side of it are the real alternatives.
Either side of it in the same line: Forest River No Boundaries NB18.3 is 386 pounds lighter at 5,603 lb GVWR; and Forest River No Boundaries NB19.6 is 156 pounds heavier at 6,145 lb GVWR.
| Comparable travel trailers | GVWR (lb) | Dry (lb) | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NB19.3 | 5,989 | 4,489 | 7 | 24 ft 8 in |
| IBEX 19MBH | 5,984 | 4,484 | — | 24 ft 8 in |
| Flying Cloud 23FB | 6,000 | 5,000 | 4 | 23 ft 11 in |
| International 23FB | 6,000 | 5,100 | 6 | 23 ft 11 in |
| Jay Flight 210QB | 6,000 | 4,275 | 6 | 25 ft 8 in |
| Jay Flight SLX 210QB | 6,000 | 4,260 | 4 | 25 ft 8 in |
| Prowler 2100QB | 6,000 | 4,430 | 8 | 25 ft 8 in |
Against the NB19.3: the IBEX 19MBH is 5 lb lighter; the Flying Cloud 23FB is 11 lb heavier and sleeps 3 fewer; the International 23FB is 11 lb heavier and sleeps 1 fewer. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.
Those are the nearest travel trailers from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.
For scale, the Forest River No Boundaries floorplans profiled here run 3,779 to 6,753 pounds dry and 20 to 33 feet of exterior length across 17 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.
Every profiled floorplan in this line, with the full weight table, is on the Forest River No Boundaries line hub.
08 Common questions about the NB19.3
How much does the NB19.3 weigh?
It leaves the factory at 4,489 pounds dry, and its manufacturer-set loaded ceiling (GVWR) is 5,989 pounds. Real towing weight lands between the two and depends entirely on what you load. Use the GVWR when matching a tow vehicle; the dry figure is only useful for comparing floorplans against each other.
How much can the NB19.3 carry?
Cargo carrying capacity is 1,500 pounds. That is the whole budget: water, propane, batteries, gear and everything you bring. Filling the 30-gallon fresh tank uses about 250 pounds of that.
What is the tongue weight of the NB19.3?
The published dry tongue weight is 610 pounds. It is measured empty; loaded, it runs higher, and it comes out of your tow vehicle’s payload rather than its tow rating.
What size tow vehicle does the NB19.3 need?
Your vehicle needs a tow rating of at least 5,989 pounds — this floorplan’s GVWR — and enough payload left over for the hitch load, passengers and anything in the bed. This site does not publish tow ratings for specific vehicles, because one truck model varies by thousands of pounds across engine, axle ratio, cab and package. The figure that governs is the payload sticker on your own door jamb.
How many people does the NB19.3 sleep?
It is rated to sleep 7. Rated sleeping positions include convertible furniture, so count the beds against how you actually travel rather than against the number.
What are the tank capacities on the NB19.3?
Fresh 30 gallons, grey 30 gallons, black 30 gallons. Tank sizes set how long the floorplan can sit away from hookups, and the smallest of the three is what ends the stay.
How long is the NB19.3?
Exterior length is 24' 8". Measure against your site length and your storage before committing — the exterior figure is the one that has to fit, and it includes the tongue or pin box.
Every figure in these answers is read from this page’s verified specification table. Where the manufacturer publishes nothing, the question is not answered rather than estimated.
09 What this page publishes, and what it does not
This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 17 of them for the NB19.3. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.
Not published for this floorplan: interior height, tire size (a tire description is published, a size is not). If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.
The completeness figure at the foot of this page (95%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.
Values on this page carrying an asterisk were derived by arithmetic from published figures, or come from a single source, rather than being printed directly by the manufacturer. The flag travels with the number into the downloadable spec sheet.
How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
11 NHTSA safety record
This floorplan belongs to the Forest River No Boundaries line, and NHTSA holds 8 recall campaigns and 3 owner complaints against that line. They are separate records and are not added together — a recall is a manufacturer-confirmed defect with a remedy; a complaint is one owner’s account, which NHTSA does not verify.
Too few reports to show a pattern. 3 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover equipment, structure and tires.
Recall coverage is not complete — our harvest of NHTSA’s recall API ran 1,556 queries, of which 0 failed and 242 returned an explicit zero. A line can still be under-reported where NHTSA files a roster under a parent name, or where a match rests on the wording of the recall rather than its model field. Complaints come from the complete bulk file but are unverified and self-selected: a high count tracks how many units a line sold at least as much as how well it was built. Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Forest River No Boundaries line page.
