    Also when I change out my old Bob's two piece 8 in jackplate for my 10 inch Quicksilver Para-Lift hydraulic jackplate I'll easily be adding another 25 lb's to the arse end. That though is not so much what worries me. My steering cables come out of the big hole on the starboard side along with the rest of the motor and console harness and even with 8" setback they are pulled back quite a bit. Going back another 2" may put an unforseen strain on them that may just be impossible to live with. In addition, the control electronics wiring harness for the new plate are also going to have to exit this hole which is already crowded. I'll be pushing the limit of how many electronics and control cables can be ran through this hole.

    I also gotta figure out how I'm going to hook onto this looper with my cherry picker to lift it while I change out the jackplate, as I don't have the proper lifting attachment. My business partner is moving and either way I'm also going to need another set of hands to bolt this thing up.

    There's a matching exit on the other side, I just drilled mine out and re-routed my control cables, fuel line and return line. That really dressed it up and gave it the semetrical look with 2 rigging tubes. I bought longer steering cables (11' 6") and use a 10" setback.
    The impossible I do right away, miracles take a little longer.

    Oh I know about the matching exit on the other side. Right now my rear trim switch is in it. However I've considered relocating this and using it for cables if necessary. I think though I may get away with leaving the steering cables where they are. They have been there for a while and right now my steering is nearly effortless unless your haulin azz. The wiring cables for the hydraulic jackplate controls though will be another matter altogether. Here's a photo of the rear showing the cables to give you an idea.

    Well guys I have my motor hook now and finally put my new cherry picker together today. I plan on changing out my jackplate as soon as weather permits. I figure two days as I plan on doing some preventative maintinance on my transom's motor mount holes while I have the opportunity. Also once the old jackplate is removed I'll have to remove all the 5200 (or whatever) sealer that is currently there. Also this Hydraulic jackplate is a bit heavier than the one I'm replacing or even my other new jackplate I have, a 10" Hydrodynamics RapidJack. So I'mgoing to have to devise a way to hold it up to the transom while I bolt it on. I have one idea involving cinder blocks and raising and lowering the front of the trailer till things line up. but we'll have to wait and see how it goes. I do not plan on unhooking any steering, motor harness, or control cables. Just support my motor while I swap out my jackplates.

    Had the boat out last Sunday and motor is too high for holeshot, but perfect when up on plane. I think having this hydraulic plate will benefit my holeshot 100%

    1998 Key Largo with about 300hp on the back. A little overpowered but it sure is fun keeping up with them big twin engined rigs. I dont fish so I just have it for cruising around the inter coastal, hanging on the islands, sandbars and going to restaurants. Looking for a leaning post for it if anyone has or knows of one in the stuart area.
