How to Choose a Roll Up Model

  • Packed dimensions matter more than length — measure the locker before you shop.
  • Air floors are lighter and faster to rig; slatted and aluminium floors are stiffer and plane earlier.
  • PVC is cheaper and lighter; CSM/Hypalon survives tropical UV far longer.
  • Check maximum horsepower AND maximum engine weight — the transom rating is rarely the limit you hit first.
