[QUOTE="dearl, post: 428845, member: 1760"] Will adding pods tip the bow lower to the water? [/quote] Short answer No. Pods will displace extra weight at the stern of the boat, in reality if it lifts the stern it will level the boat. Its not going to "push" the bow down, it cant. With that being said, you want to balance your weight in the boat to make the bow weight neutral so when you and a couple guys get on the front deck, it levels out. Its hard to picture it, but if I was building a boat for you to bow fish out of and you carrying that kind of weight, I would insist on Pods. [/QUOTE]
