    Do pods slow boats down ? I have a 14-36 with a 670 Longtail and need a little floatation but can’t stand to loose any speed

    • @dondoesit

      No loss of speed! The boat runs more free in the water as it is no longer dragging it's ass from the weight of the motor. All Positive !

      @@dondoesitokay great ! You think it’s okay won’t affect plane ride speed not to mount them flush to bottom or side ? Inch up or so to and inch in on both side to side avoid drain plugs ?

    What size pods did you put install

    • @dondoesit
      @dondoesit  4 месяца назад +1

      My bottom is 48'' so I went with the Medium. Worked out perfect. On the Beavertail site they have a chart to tell you what size you need by the bottom width of your boat.
