    How to choose the right size jack plate?

    I read through the previous posts, but didn't really see the answer to this. I have a Triton 240 LTS with a Opti 225 and 3 blade Mirage Plus-19 and I'm looking to add a jack plate. How do I choose which size 4", 6" 8"? I am trying to run shallower and maybe a little faster.

    I would think that you would get the best answers in the Triton sections of the boards. They will know what works best!

    More than likely, 6" will be sufficient for your particular setup.
