Thread: Raptors vs Powerpoles vs Talons

It would be a couple years before I do it but that was my concern about putting it on the float pod and blocking the ladder. We love to use the boat as a pleasure boat in the summer so that could be a problem. I wondered also if it is possible to mount them at the motor mount like they do on bass boats without the float pods interfering.

dealer warned me to keep the Raptors away from the motor , if possible( so now the boarding ladder is on the inside of the Raptor closer to the motor. I have a jackplate but couldnt accommodate mounting the Raptors on it.

Question : can powerpole drift paddles be used on Raptors without major re-engineering ?
