I know, I know - I laughed too, but that’s what they’re called…
I’m trying to find a specific type: not the fancy hydraulic type; not the type that requires tedious adjusting with a wrench and other tools. I’m looking for one that raises and lowers an mid-sized outboard with a manually-operated lever.
The scenario: you cross open water and approach the shallows of a creek mouth. You slow down, push (or pull up) on a lever, and the jack plate assembly raises your outboard motor to where you want it to be. It must be stout enough to raise and lower a 40 hp motor.
Where can I find one?
