[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 507472, member: 12995"] The pods might cause you to lose speed because of added drag so take that into consideration. It honestly sounds like you need a little bit bigger boat like a 1660 for added width and then do a forward center console. I have a 1652 and it's plenty stable, but I only weigh around 145. It sounds like you could dump some $$$ into it and still not be what you were looking for in the end. Is the weight of the boat an issue for you with towing, launching and retrieving? The 1448 with the 25 makes for a lighter package but a 1652-1660 might be the sweet spot. [ATTACH type="full"]118069[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
