    What jackplate for a 2007 285XL with 150 VMAX?

    I am wanting to add a 6" manual jackplate to my boat but am not sure which brand to buy. Anyone have any suggestions and also where to buy? Thanks

    Thanks for the link! Do you know if this jackplate will match up with the existing holes in the boat and motor? I have also heard about adding a hole shot plate....will this improve anything?

    I have the Rapid Jack on mine and everything fit and it works fine. I might add those aluminum plates that go under the bolt heads that somebody had for sale on here though since the slots got a little messed up by the previous owner, I bought the plate used on here.

    The holeshot plate will not be necessary. You should get a nosebleed now on holeshot and that won't deminish.

    The holeshot plate is worth it, not for holeshot, But less backwash on shut down.

    i had a 6" slidemaster on my 2004 285 pro XL with the 150 vmax. Manual plate but easy to set up. You'll like it!
