I am trying to find out the deminsions of a drift sock. How wide is the mouth and how wide is the back hole? I am going to make my own and see how it comes out.
I have good strong material to make it with and it should hold up under pressure. Thanks, DRF

They come in many many sizes. Typically the drift sock people willublish which size they reccomending based on the type of boat you have. Go to one of their sites and take the dimensions they have and copy it.

Will the "hole" size differ when you get to diffrent lengths? I could not find that part out... about the "holes".

I have a few that are about 36 inches and the small holes are about 4-6 inches.
