In the immortal words of Homer "doh!" I never even thought of that. Of course, the total cost goes up by the jack plate, but it does open up my choices. What about the steering cable? Is there typically enough play, or does it need to be replaced? What kind of setback should i be looking at? And lastly, what about the engine weight? Since the engine is now away from the transom, do i need to worry about cantilever, or am i overthinking this?
