Who's running these plates under their jackplates and or setback plates. These are the plates that help prevent the scooping action of an open setback or jackplate. Those of you running them, did you make your own ? What are they made of ?(aluminum) what guage ? They look simple enough to make myself. Does any one have any downfalls to installing one of these ? I'll probably make an adjustable one which rises and falls with the jackplate.(I have an 8" setback bracket and a 5 1/2" jackplate) I saw some adjustable ones and some stationary ones.

Anyone with some experience here ? I'd greatly appreciate some input. Good ,Bad or Ugly !

Thanks in advance !!!:bigthumb:
 
TH marine sells one already made for cheap! Alumium! dont use one but I just got my jack plate so we will see if I need one!
 
Stainless Marine has a new 7" setback bracket that has the plate already welded to the bottom. Built for Jackplates and has a negative tuck!!!
