The Exclusive ClackaCraft Tunnel Hull
with Reverse Keel Tracking Channels

The Exclusive ClackaCraft Tunnel Hull is now here!
Since the early development of the drift boat, most changes have been minor cosmetic changes. It was not until the ClackaCraft R&D team combined computer technology with 24 years of on-the-river-experience and significant input from our pro-guide staff that there was any real improvement in drift boat hull design.
ClackaCraft incorporated a computer-designed tunnel that was a major advancement in drift boat design. The tunnel hull was such a tremendous success we incorporated the tunnel in our 15', 16' and 17' models. This prompted R&D to take the next step.
An elongated tunnel, along with side water tracking channels to the left and right act as reverse keels. These channels direct the water straight, keeping the boat in line, with out the liability of a square chine.
The addition of a very slight "V" has been incorporated in the front to reduce water slap from wave action on the bottom for a smoother ride.
We have added another inch of width to the bottom making it 57" wide, for even greater load capacity. The tunnel hull floats even higher in the water making it easier to row when loaded to capacity.
