Re: jackplates
well I am glad you made it here!
As far as a jack plate if you get one, and set it so the cavition plate is even with the bottom it should be alright.
But that said you better make sure that the transom is in good shape!!
I don't no what size motor you are going to use? (150or so) But they weight in about 350 to 400 pounds!
And then add the motor to the jack plate that will be alot of levrage to the transom.
Might be better to sell the motor you have (if you have one) and get a 20" shaft??
