Upstream or down? Downstream as long as you have headway(You must be going faster than the current) Upstream of course as you can't without.I would like to know something about ROOKIE BOATS OF MISSISSIPPI. PLEASE ADVISE?
My friends and I have a custom made raft that we steer with a tiller. We all so take 4 oars and 2 - 4 long poles with us to help with the propulsion, though 90% of the time we just lay back lazily steering with the tiller. It is made out of the big 30 gallon blue plastic barrels with plywood decking. We throw a keg, 2 coolers, a grill and about 6 - 10 people on it and have no problems steering it down the river. The river is the Susquehanna and it normally flows at 4 -10 mph depending on its level. Although our raft is only about 20 feet long and 8 feet wide, I don't foresee you having any problems. The only thing that I might worry about is that when the water is to shallow to float we all get off and carry the raft, we never had to carry it more than a couple hundred yards, but if it were 40 feet and full of cargo it may be a problem? Hope this helps, good luck.Yes. The 40 foot Bay boats here on the Chesapeake use a tiller for working. These boats can be loaded with clams, fish, oysters, fish, and etc.
