i have a 16 36 and my motor is weighing my back end down. wanting to know if you can put pods on with a surface drive hanging off the transom.

Ya. Don't work the best though. If mounted at the surface they will disrupt water flow. I had em on my previous boat. It did not affect the SD at all but I had em mounted an inch above the bottom of the transom so when on plane they wouldn't touch the water. You do loose some buoyancy when mounted that way though.

No, you cant do it.

what motor do you have?

^^ That's a false statement. You CAN do it. You shouldn't do it is a bit more accurate.

Is yer boat ass heavy er somethin? Why do ya feel the need fer pods?

Am I the only other one that saw what size his boat is??? 16/36, so no pods are NOT an option for him, because they'd have to be like 6-8" wide at most.

Honestly, your best bang would be selling it & buying a lil bigger boat (either go longer or wider)

Wow. Ya agreed. No way on that boat. Thanks fer pointin out the obvious TC.

Somebody knows a North Louisiana Redneck an appoligy.

Why no pods on the 36 inch bottom I have seen it multiple times

An outboard doesn't weigh as much as a mud motor, so an 8" wide pod will float it better. It wouldn't have enough bouyancy to have much positive effect for a mud motor, but would yield considerable negative effect because of the water disruption.
