I'm looking to see what power pole brackets guys have on an atlas jackplate for the z7 and similar hulls. z8, z9, z18, z19 or 20 maybe.

You can use a small screwdriver and pop that black plastic collar out that that line goes in to. Then the line will pull out.
I run an 07 591 with a 200 optimax on it. Also a 24vt ultrex, so 1 less battery. I believe the 591 and z-7 are pretty much the same hull. Currently I'm running a 6" hydraulic jackplate and a 24...
Yeah that's funny, all of Iowas smaller lakes are idle only... Been to several of them with no issues
Update after driving. It made an improvement. It does still have some chine walk but it's no where near as violent when I really get it up on the pad. Still learning the "sweet spot" but have seen...
Nitro should have drilled them correctly from the factory also. Sorry but it was WAY more cost effective to go this route to accomplish the same thing.
The motor was crooked before the jackplate. The previous owner mentioned the same behavior before the jackplate also.
The holes in the transom were off. Not enlarged. Just crooked. I had the jackplate modified to correct the issue.
I hung 2 plumb bobs, one off the keel at the front and one off the transom center(the factory marks I found). I shot a laser through the 2 strings and found the laser hit the passenger side of the...

So here's before and after. I took the jackplate off. Took it apart. Made a template to lower the right side 1/4" out of some plastic sheet I had. Had my buddy who's a certified...
I put a 6" hydraulic on my 591 with a 200 OPTI on it and it seems like plenty
6" seems to be pretty standard for these rigs. I have an 07 591 I went with 6 and it's good
Here's what it looks like...

Plus the guy I got it from before the jackplate said he could only get to 64 before he got scared. Also a different prop than now.. I chalked that up to the cable steering that was on it. Guess that...
It is possible to chine walk that bad with the motor that low? It's not like I was trying to run 2" below the pad..
This seems way more violent and the boat seems to start pivoting. I can believe...
So I got this boat last fall. Set it up to my liking over the winter by adding hydraulic steering and a 6" atlas hydraulic jackplate. I posted before about my motor looking 1/4" higher on the right...
I got this boat at the end of last fishing season. Been upgrading it to my liking. I have only got to drive it twice before freeze up but the little i did at speeds under 60 it seemed ok. I will...
The guy I got it from put it on. Didn't realize it's also a 52" shaft...

Ok I guess I will try a new prop. Thanks!!
I have an ultrex on the front of my 591. It seems to vibrate quite a bit. Does anyone know if the the wedge will help on this hull. I know the z7 is similar so if anyone has input that'd be great....
Looking for ideas for a grab handle for the passenger side of my 07 591. It has the one on the outside, but needs one on the inside. Come take off time my partner wants something to hold on too... ...
It has a 200 Opti on it
So after looking through the setup pages, there isn't much info on the 591. Did not many sell or? So how different is the 591 vs Z7? Would an 8" jackplate be too much? I measured from where the...
Thanks guys.. Ya engine is newly rebuilt, brand new tempest 24, and ultrex 80, helix 9 at the helm, helix 7 on the bow, lighted compartments and new seats. I just have to add hyd steering and a...
My 2007 591 with a 200 opti max. All kinds of goodies. This will be spending a lot of time on pool 13..
