Re: Jack Plate on a 20
I have one of those jack plates. They do work ,but they move weight aft which throws the balance off slightly. As FR. Frank said water can and will still spill over the transom. I have taht problem on the drift more so than on the anchor but when I usually anchor it is in the ICW. As you stated this will be a way for you to get a 25" motor until you could either close or raise your transom. I am in the same boat(no pun intended) as i bought the 25" motor do someday do the same thing ,but havent got around to it so I made a piece of wood that "raises" the transom not the end all but helps. Good luck.
