Do a search on jackplate + outboard and you will find a bunch of them..
Cabelas has a nice selection.

Thanks for the info. I do a lot of business with Cabelas and have
seen their jack plates. I've also read quite a few posts on jack
plates but haven't been able to find anything that goes into detail on
how they work.

My understanding is that there is one bracket that bolts on to the
transom. Then a mating bracket is bolted to the outboard motor. Then
the two assemblies are bolted together. Is this correct? Are the
outboard motor clamp screws removed so they don't get in the way?

If anyone has installed these, can you fill me in on how the whole
mess works?

Thanks,
Mike

You're probably going to have to beef up that transom to expect a
jackplate to stay on while holding a high-horse outboard. The stresses
are one hell of a lot different on the transom.
