I am looking for a manual jack plate for my small boat that has a 15 HP tiller on it. I wanted to know if anybody has used a smaller jack plate on the site and what kind did or didnt work for them. Any info would be great.

HEY F.P. I HAVE A SMALL ENGINE LIFT THAT I USE TO USE FOR A 10 H.P. EXTRA ENGINE ON MY OLD OFF SHORE BOAT. YOU JUST LIFT IT UP. AND POP THE PIN AND SHE STAYS UP, WHEN YA WANT TO USE IT PULL PIN AND DROP THE ENGINE BACK DOWN IN THE WATER. THE TEN H.P. ENGINE WOULD GO DOWN ABOUT 8 " BELOW THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT AND WORKED FINE FOR TROLLING. IF YOU WANT IT , YOU CAN HAVE IT FOR $50
