[QUOTE="alfaguy, post: 230590, member: 6911"] You can tailor the width to your motor. My 25 Evinrude has a 10 inch wide clamp bracket, and the 12 inch wide jackplate is good for it, but a 15 hp Johnson measures 7.5 inches, so it can be smaller. You should measure your new motor - may be able to use a 10 inch wide version, and use 3x3x1/4 angle on the boat side too to keep the scale reasonable. It is up to you. With a smaller, lighter motor, I don't think I would bother with a screw adjustor either. My Rhino is a 14x48 welded boat, and the 25 hp is fairly heavy. I wanted to be able to adjust it on the water. Dave A. [/QUOTE]
