When I had one it was a 22' tritoon. used 2 of the 54" socks I think. I've heard of such a thing as a drift curtain on pontoons, but someone else who has experience with them would need to comment about them.

22 pontoon and I use two 60 socks.
I think Tom Gravley used to use a diy drift curtain on his old catfish toon.

I had a 22' pontoon for years and rigged a 10X15' tarp for a drift chute. Bottom edge of tarp weighted with 3" PVC capped and filled with concrete. Makes for great controlled drift when it'd be too windy otherwise.
