About Western Style McKenzie River Drift Boats
Western style drift boats, also known as McKenzie River drift boats, are the original, classic style, developed for wild river travel and fishing. With their extensive rocker and high sides, Western style drift boats are optimized for the wildest whitewater. They're intended for downstream drift fishing in fast moving water. The high rocker makes them ultra maneuverable in wild water where you only row to keep yourself pointed downstream. If you fish fast moving mountain rivers, rarely going ashore, and don't plan on going back upstream, pick a Western style drift boat.
The Riverman is a classic McKenzie River drift boat in the most popular and commonly used size. It's built by the stitch-and-glue method. Only five sheets of 10mm to 1/2 inch plywood are required for construction. If you're looking for an easy to build, sturdy fly fishing boat, you can't go wrong picking the Riverman.
