[QUOTE="Poormans Boatright, post: 403315, member: 5870"] Rich, I usually like to keep the boat with me as I'm building them, I like to make **** sure they are going to fit and look good. Rework costs me time and money. I read up on those beavertails and they seem like a fine product. However they cannot compare to a set custom tailored to your boat in my opinion. I dont like how you have to scab on pieces to make them contour to your transom. No prefab pods can match every manufacturers boat design, look on the beavertail installation instructions, not only does it not match the transom ,the pod doesnt match the side of the boat contour. Not that big of a deal? But for me thats not how i want my boat. Things to consider when I build them is, like I have said 1) transom angle 2) side of hull angle) 3) motor (with or without a whale tail ) swing at full left and right turn colliding with pod. 4) general size [/QUOTE]
