Here's the situation.. I have a G3 1756 CC DLX, with a 90/65 yamaha four stroke. I've been running the boat for about 3 years now, and I use it for the susqy primarily, but I do a decent amount of striper fishing on the flats, lower susquehanna, as well as a good bit of crabbing in the summer. I've been contemplating adding flotation pods to the boat to help with the squatting. It's a standard hull, standard center console (not fwd) with rear gas tank (21 gallon, although rarely over half full). Batteries are in the front, but that's about it as far as substantial weight goes. For those of you that have run the same hull both with and without pods, what differences have you noticed? My cousin just got a similar hull, just fwd console, with pods, and it got me thinking. Much of a speed difference? Cavitation? I'm sure it floats shallower, and would hope it would run a little more level, helping to protect the foot, which sure needs it. I ran ft. hunter last night at 3.5, and caught the foot a couple times taking it easy, but i've been fishing north of harrisburg more than in the past in lower water..
