Chieftain 24 pod

[MuskokaHunter]

I sent my 1974 Chieftain 24 ft to the welder for a pod . I got 1 2019 150hp g1 evinrude 25" shaft . If I make the pod so I can do a single outboard in the middle then setup the pod to support the twins on the outside chines how funny would that look . Have the option to put on a single and twins .
Pod with a swim deck too is what I would like . Welder said it be big and goofy looking . But I don't mind I think. Any Ideas or opinions. Side note I been trying to read everything on here and online for a bit I have been reading most of, if not all the rebuilds on here. Thanks for your time .

Welcome to the forum.

Are you converting from an i/o?

At my age I don't care if I look goofy, on the water or elsewhere. Do what you want if it functions like you want.

Yes I'm converting it from an I/o had old Ford 302 I sold and the old mc outdrive . Already gutted completely just aluminum shell now . I'm also getting the welder to add a new floor frame lower all one level. I may want to lift the roof later to be taller so I don't have to duck . But that's way in the future.
