    New boat, need pods?

    I have tunn.. and pods and cavatation plate(Shallowblaster).But what I see is everything you add creates drag and slows mine down 2/3 mph.And creates turbulance I have never been able to get my transducer to work at anything but idle(just no good place to mount it back there in clean water)...

    Good idea or waste of time?

    Most consider a 36 narrow ...32 is canoe width..If your a small guy with good balance ..it will be OK Kinda like getting on unicycle and rideing it..Other than that any project is a learning experience..I'm a salt water so I'm a little harder on Boats
