Re: [electricboats] ePropulsion Pod Drive 6

I'm in the same situation with a nav 3.

Looking forward to seeing how they all stand up.

Hi Paul, I am in Qld Australia.

I purchased an Epropulsion pod 6kw about a year ago before the prices went up.

My only drama is that my boat is still under construction…..yeah…….

Love to hear how you go if you decide to purchase.

Thanks, Peter Grant (kiwiinaus)

Is there anyone with experience  with the ePropulsion Pod Drive 6? I'm seriously thinking of buying one but I've currently got two concerns;

1. What are the realistic chances of the seal failing and water entering the unit? Has anyone who owns one ever had this problem?

2. It's mostly aluminum, How well is it likely to survive in salt water?

I'm intending to put the pod on a Badger 34, which has a flat bottom, which makes the pod drive a very easy to install option.

Thanks to all who may respond.
