    ive got a 12" bob hyrdaulic, and the extra 8" of set back did nothing to add performance...if anything, it slows hole shot....

    Re: jack plate for outlaw (low slung cruiser)

    did not say i had 12" plus 8"....
    I SAID i had a 12" BOBS hydraulic, and its 8" longer than my previous, and it made "NO" increase in performance...if anything it slowed my hole shot down....
