[QUOTE="dhoganjr, post: 407744, member: 12925"] When I get that shallow I trim it up a little and give it more throttle. It is usually just gravel in the places I get that shallow. There have been several times the bottom runners has touched and not made contact with the shoe. Your pods will probably perform the same function as a whale tail. It keeps it from porpoising when you trim up while on plane and gives a better holeshot. I also like it when there is heavy chop or waves on the lake. I can bump the trim down, which pulls the bow down and cuts the waves better, also cuts down on cavitation. I can run faster and not get beat up as bad crossing the lake. I'm sure Joe would have put one on there if he thought it needed it. On second thought, after looking at your transom again, I don't know if there would be enough room between the pods and a whale tail for steering. [/QUOTE]
