    Hi,

    Im moulding an outboard pod to accept up to a 300hp (will probably be a 200-250) and Im wondering what layup you’d recommend?

    It will be of a similar design to the attached photo. I’ll probably leave the "top" off for ease of laminating then cut an access hole on the transom mounting side to then glass on a swim platform.

    thanks,

    james

    I see they make them - is a plywood/fiberglass outboard bracket sane?
