[QUOTE="hunterguy86, post: 495815, member: 4624"] It’s a 12V trolling motor with a group 27 deep cycle. I have a group 27 in the rear to run electronics, lights etc. I usually run a very light load outside of duck season. I’m really thinking the pods on the back of the boat are contributing to my speed issues. I’m considering having them cut off and re-welded. They are set flat with the bottom of the boat, which is contributing a decent amount of drag. However, when they were initially put on, they had a 3/4” rise. The boat porpoised pretty bad, which lead to the flat install. This boat should really run faster than it does with the motor that I have. I’m wondering if I should go back to a 3/4” rise on the pods with an adjustable trim tab. [/QUOTE]
