    Question Triton Jack Plate Set Back Limitations

    Does anyone have a definitive answer as to whether or not Triton Boats has a limit on the amount of setback allowed for Jack plates on their bass boats? If so what is it and does your transom warranty become void if a larger jack plate is installed?

    I don't know if there's a limit or not but I have a 10" Bobs on my Tr-22. I've seen 12" on a couple Tr-21's...

    Thanks, do you know of anyone using more than 6" on a 18 TRX?

    Straight from the warranty info, it will void your warranty going with a plate over 6" on your hull.

    Thank you. Looks like longer models get longer jack plates. Now I have a definitive answer.

    I suppose this saved me some $ as I was considering an 8" or 10" hydraulic.
