Sharp looking!

Thanks. Not as pretty as that 496 we had that my best friend still brags about all the time, but I am happy about this 595. For now lol


The top Cap is Blue and White. I will take a better picture later today.

Did you get the boat out yet?????

Did you get the boat out yet?????

No I have not. I have a lot going on that makes getting out very difficult. Lots of family displaced in SW Louisiana from hurricanes and some living with us. I am taking a chemo for 5 days a month and it takes me about 4 days to feel even 1/2 normal so that is about 9 days a month that I am out. Sold my motor and fixing to put a SHO on the 595 too somewhere in the good 20 days. The boat didnt have a jackplate, but I am putting one. What size plate should I put on the 595. 8"??

12 is the best on the big girl but 8 or 10 will help

[barbarian]

So 12” is the best. I thought I read in search history that 6-8” was best. But 10” are easier to find and power pole brackets fit 10”

That’s on all the 20 feet and under boats ,your with a big heavy boat now and takes a lot of ass weight to get her to lift.Even the 210 is coming with a 10 standard.Even Phoenix and a few others are running 12 now on these longer heavy boats to get them to lift.A 8 is fine but 10-12 really gets it lifting.I will go back to a 10 as I hate to because it’s hard to get in my garage and cover is tight but with all the electronics and ultrex and livescanner up there I added about 95 lbs .You can feel it for sure.Even the 797 loves the bigger plate as we went from a no plate 73 mph to a 10 to 78 that’s a big improvement and I bet a 12 or 14 would got us a couple more mph.Its definitely a balance and boats love to be heavy towards the rear .

Man, you have a lot on your plate! Best of luck with the chemo and beating the cancer!

Dont overlook your cable/hose length regardless of the set back you choose.
