Jack Plates perform a vital function relative to your outboard engine. There are essentially three different types: fixed jack plates, hydraulic jack plates and manual jack plates. Each can be used to lift your motor higher out of the water, which can be beneficial, especially in shallow water.
Outboard jack plates can also provide a setback between the transom and motor, providing a greater distance between the two, which allows the motor to run more efficiently. They come in a variety of sizes and styles and IE Boat Supplies carries an extensive inventory of T-H Marine jack plates.
How do you know which type of jack plate is right for your need – fixed, manually adjustable, and electric or hydraulic based? Here’s a brief overview: Fixed jack plates are just as the name implies; they can be used to lift your engine up into a fixed position. Typically, they are the most economical option for boats, but are limited in overall functionality. The T-H Marine Hi-Jacker Fixed Jack Plate is great for long shaft outboards or V6 outboards up to 150 HP.
