Re: pod design post by gulfislander » thu feb 21, 2013 6:22 am i took a pretty serious look around the boat last time i was there. opened every hatch stuck my head where ever it could reach and seemed pretty clean with no major worry points.. Colleges i would like to know the theory or if there being one on bod extensions to the transom of the boat, i have a plate aluminum boat with two of these extensions on the transom under a swim platform.. Home aluminum boats & pods pods flotation pods (large) flotation pods (large) $ 349.99. our flotation pods not only increase the plane of your boat, but also offer up to 200 lbs. of extra flotation plus offers numerous other benefits! time in the field and passion for the outdoors drives us to design and build products that go beyond.
Ok so i built some pods for the back of my boat, they welded great and came together just as i wanted. problem lies with welding to the boat. the pods are .100" and the transom is .090ish". i got them tacked up and in position and i start laying a bead and after a few inches the arc just explodes and leaves a small hole. sh!t i say! well, move on.. Mine is an aluminium boat, and old stessl. i fitted two 80 litre , completely sealed pods, to my boat,on each side of my motor, so the motor is in a u, so to speak. they hold 80 kg of weight. (1 litr, 1kg) what a difference to the bouyancy of the boat, very stable at rest also. planes at very slow speed, and trims very well.. Re: outboard pod/bracket design this is a modification that i looked in to for my cabin boat as well. i decided against it because of the scale of the changes i would have to make are outside my capabilities on my boat..
