Picked a new wrong engine today

[jorgeinmiami]

When I picked up the checkmate it did come with a jack plate but I sold it. From what I have seen and researched a jack plate would work but it wouldn't bring the engine up the 5 inches needed and it would cause undue streets on the transom being up higher.

I'm still pretty far away from putting any engine on the boat so I'm going to get the boat further along 1 st.

I did see a guy selling a 20 midsection and a blown lower locally for $200 but wonder if that would work. My engine is a 2000 ocean pro and his is a 2005 ocean pro???
