They do slide a good bit if loaded light or running too fast into a turn. With a good load they do turn better and either way it's controllable once you learn how to drive it. It's just a product of the chine design. But it's the chine that makes these hulls run like they do and carry weight as well as they do. It's a compromise. I'd change some things about the floor plan for my own individual uses but honestly you get what you get when buying a production hull. It works fine and has accomplished everything I've needed it to but it could be changed up I guess you could say. One reason why they are built the way they are is for strength. The raised section in the floor covers cross bracing that ties the boat together side to side. They are a very strong boat. Some people dislike the short sides on the 60" hulls but I find them to be nothing but a plus. Easier to get into the boat out of the water, easier to reach the water to land a nice fish from the deck, and much better in the wind with regards to being blown around. I run a smallish 12v trolling motor and have no complaints. Easier to hide a shorter boat ( vertically shorter ) when hunting also.
What else do you want to hear? I can't let flint down and those be the only few things I can knock it for or brag about
