Hey Fish.- I'm not familiar w/ your brand. I just purchased my 1st one a few weeks ago at the Portland Sportsmen Show. It is a McKenzie Cat built By Bob Hill River Boats. I haven't had the prob.'s U describe. I suggest centering the anchor bracket on the back of the frame, then moving the frame/center of gravity forward a little to bring the back of the tubes a bit further out of the water so they won't catch & turn as much. If it still turns, I suggest buying or making about a foot longer anchor braket extention arm. All of these things will help stabilize your anchorups. W/ the frame furher forward U may feel a little closer to the water up front but the Cat will actually row easier thru rapids & when pulling plugs. Keep a small but secure knot that cinches up close to reduce swing & also glue a rubber section on anything it might still swing into. To totally remove swing U can attach a prymid shaped anchor holder & set it in that before running rapids. I have the 10.5' big tube version w/ a 2-man frame and it anchors fine w/ a 15# lead pyrmid. It rows a little sluggish w/ 2 but runs great thru about anything w/ 1 aboard! They are just excellant for running rocky sections of upper rivers that would be difficult w/ a driftboat. Access www.dhdriftboats.com to check out their Cataraft accessories which could be of help to U.- Tight lines, Steve
