    Hydraulic Jackplate on an Xpress x19 with 200hp Merc

    What size and brand of jackplate would you use if you were buying for a 19' Xpress with a 200hp Mercury Opti? Thanks!

    Bob's action jack in 10" setback. Mine still works like new with 0 slop. You could go with a 12" but a set of 2" spacers will accomplish the same thing and allow you to switch back if you don't like it. Mine sits low enough in the water as it is without adding another 2" of setback. CJ
