I haven't been able to find a thread that explains advantages and disadvantages of different size jackplates. I have a descent understanding of hydraulic vs manual but 6" vs 12" I'm not so sure.
Currently have a 12" rapid jack on a 2001 Triton Tr-20 and 225 Merc EFI. The boat runs pretty well (mid 70s in the winter) but the bow is tough to elevate in the summer.eveb with a balanced and cup added Croxton 26 Tempest.
Well one of the bolts on the Rapid Jack broke and I can't get it out without mangling the plate so I'll be in the market for a new one now. Just needed an education on what the advantages of different setbacks do for my setup. Thanks!
