![]() One advantage to the hard board is the built in Stashpod. Squatting, leaning down or bending over needs to be more controlled and fighting big fish is a little more tricky than it is on the inflatable. I find a wider more forward stance on the board reduces the left to right wobble and allows for more range of motion when casting. After fishing off an inflatable for years, the transition back to a hard board forced me to tighten up my casting and be more aware of my movements. The hard boards tend to be a little more narrow than the inflatables, and the stability albeit very good, is noticeable when comparing the two. This hull style greatly reduces water noise or slap, however it does make turning on a dime more difficult. This pointed nose design, allows the board to cut through the water and track in a straight line effortlessly. I fish off the BOTE 12′ Rackham which has a displacement hull, and it is by far my favorite.
