Re: [electricboats] Pocket Trawler Electrification

No the ePropulsion PODs are fixed. If you want lifting or rotation then there are the  "Navy" series which are outboard type legs.

Can the pods rotate?  That would be handy.

I should add, the rudder as pictured in my last post is as the boat was originally constructed.  It was enlarged by a previous owner and is about 50% larger with area added both on the leading edge and trailing edge.  I may be proven wrong, but I don't believe I'll have any problems with sufficient rudder authority after the prop wash is moved off the centerline and to the pods.   And, as mentioned, I have the cheat-code in the form of a bow thruster, which does seem like overkill on a 27' boat.
