    building kara- pods or no pods?

    Scott, thanks so much for all of the info. I still need to comb out the fine details, but I'm feeling pretty good about the project. I can't wait until I can get out in the middle of the milfoil rafts and get some duckies

    building kara- pods or no pods?

    Thanks Ray. The motor is an older 6hp Johnson that weighs probably 70lbs or so? I never weighed it, so I'm not too sure. I figure that it pushes our 12' row boat along ok, so it should be fine for this build. Also I figured I would mount the battery at the front of the cockpit area since I was...

    building kara- pods or no pods?

    Which goes to my primary question about the floatation pods. They seem to work well on some of the larger boats with mud motors and the Hybrid seems to benefit from them too, however I was wondering how much help they would give...

    building kara- pods or no pods?

    Thank you so much. I am extremely excited about starting a new project. I have always loved creating things that can be used, and I can't see a more fulfilling project than building a hunting boat. I used to do general construction, and now I build airplanes so I'm not overly concerned about the...

    building kara- pods or no pods?

    So I'm in the planning stage of building a Kara hummer and I'm goingw to square off the back for a small outboard. Looking at all the videos and pictures, it looks like the back end hangs down quite a ways while under power. My spot is about a mile boat trip and during the colder part of the...
