[QUOTE=OSEAD23;210234]There are manual jackplates for 200 bucs on ebay. They can be used to lower the motor just as they could be used to raise it. If done correctly you will have several inches of upward and downward adjust ability. You wont have cut your transom, far less expensive than changing your outboards length and you can dial in the anti-ventilation plate to the proper height.
the motor is aluminum the plate is aluminum its a pretty simple solution if you like..[/QUOTE
I like the sound of this thanks. Wasnt sure if this worked for my application. The mounting bolts for the jackplate will likely all end up in the under deck bait well instead of just the top 2.
I briefly looked on ebay already and it seemed to me that the units beefy enough were 600-800 bucks.
