    Extented plate at transom

    Hey, what is the function of the plate at the back of the transom? Is it to keep the water down before it reaches the prop?
    Why would anyone want that?

    Sure others will chime in but I believe it's to keep water from going up through the jack plate on holeshot and coming off plane. Maybe also help holeshot sort of like a whale tale deal on the cav plate.
