Yeap, my buddy used to have one. It would hop light a mother fukker with a light load, or even with someone sitting on the front deck. Also, the bottom was dented pretty good just after a few weeks, you can see the dents from the trailer bunks. His insurance replaced it with an alweld, and let him keep the old boat. |

They make them in .100. Duckwatcher, if I were you I'd shop around. Maybe call barling boat sales in Fort smith. I got my 1648 .100 weldbilt for $2000. They beat everyone else's prices by almost $1000 It's simple. get a mud motor. shoot ducks in the face. |

I'm looking at a weldbilt1748 smooth bottom, with the floor plate, a 60" gun box, with split rear seats, a grab bar, shallow water pods, and trailer. I'm already running a stock gtr35 all I need is a bigger boat to haul more bullsh*t in lol |

I'm pretty new to the mud motor world. So why would I not want the pods? |

I compiled some threads for you using the "Search" feature Pods are for outboards and LTs viewtopic.php?f=4&t=63374&hilit=Pods+surface+drive viewtopic.php?f=2&t=63892&hilit=Pods+surface+drive viewtopic.php?f=4&t=62058&p=840244&hilit=Pods+surface+drive#p840244 |

Will a 48 in wide bottom on a 17 ft boat be wide enough to keep the back end of the boat from sitting too low in the water without extra floatation on the rear? |

Thats not bad at all. The boat I have not had the pods on it when I got it, but I was running a 25 Mercury 4 stroke on it. I switched to the gtr because of all the Sandy rivers around. It felt like it was lacking when I got the mm on it, and the pods would explain why. The best I can get is 25 with just me, and 24 with 2 people. |

I did replace the original prop with a mud buddy big blade after I chewed the original one up in the sand |

If you still have the pods, I would cut them off! It should help out with speed. |
