    Jackplate for '93 176?

    Got a buddy that has a 93 Champ 176 with a Merc 150 XR6 on it that is looking to put a jack plate on it. What does everyone recommend for that boat/motor combo? Thanks!

    6" Rapid Jack with Champion cut. That was the OEM for Champs in that time frame and still the best mechanical plate out there.

    Ditto the rapid jack, the best manual plate there is.

    What is the champion cut? Is this something special that the plate needs to fit a champ?

    Got a couple degrees of positive tilt to offset the setback in relation to the transom which is undercut.
