Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Jackplate on V20 w/ Etec 175

I've been talking about putting a jackplate on my 1984 Outrage V20 with Etec 175 hp.

So far, I like the CMC manual jackplate with 5 1/2 inches of setback.

I have heard a lot of positive reports. Better gas mileage is one I like and moving the prop farther from the bottom is another.

Are there any issues with this setup that I should be aware of?

You might try contacting Sal DiMercurio at whaler1@sbcglobal.net. He recently added a plate to his V-20 Outrage.
