[QUOTE="DUXBWARE, post: 480487, member: 24798"] Hey guys. I have a 1648 riveted Jon, 20" transom, with a 30hp etec, with power tilt and trim. I am considering a had jack plate, to allow me better show water, low speed and idling around for duck hunting. not looking for any speed/performance increase. I am worried that the added weight, and the setback, will cause the boat's stern to squat too much, and will defeat the purpose of the plate, mostly. As in, I'll be able to lift the motor 5 or 6 inches, with he had, plate, bu the stern will squat 3", leaving me very little gain. Any body have any experience with a boat this size? Thanks men. Very appreciated.! [/QUOTE]
