Sorry guys it took so long. I have had pictures but just now hosted them. I have made a few changes since the photos. I removed the old hand MG tmotor and replaced it with a foot 101 Minnkota. I also removed the two pieces that they were using for the jack plate and put a 10 in bobs on.

nice boat Is that a NEW bobs plate? If not you may want to call them and ask about the new bolt procedures.

GamblerMatt · October 23, 2006, 11:42:53 PM

Nope I just purchased the 10in side pieces from bobs machine and used the parts from the 6inch bobs that was on the boat. I had 15 inches of set back and the holeshot was bad. I have dropped to 10 and am going to add 2 inch spacers from bobs.

J10B · October 24, 2006, 07:39:00 AM

depending on the time of manufacture some of the bobs plates had a bolt go bad and the engine fell off due to bolt shear. I know they are taking care of the problem just wanted you to be aware.
