How Drift Boat Rockers Effect Drift Boats
There are two principle reasons to add rocker to the bottom of a river drift boat: first is to help maneuver in waves; second to allow the drift boat to easily spin in place.
Advantages of more rocker
Spins quicker
Stays above the waterline in chop
Less boat in the current when sideways
Disadvantages of more rocker
Deeper draft
More effort to hold water (slower)
See the difference in rocker types and sizes? Its quite important to you and your over all drift boating experience when in the water or fishing in general.
