    Which jackplate? Where to have installed?

    I have a Stratos 295 Pro XL and would like to have a hydrualic jackplate installed. Which jackplate is best for money? Also looking for suggestions on where to have installed. I live in north central Indiana. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I feel the CMC jackplate is the safest:

    Most competitor jackplates are held together by a small single bolt on the hydraulic arm.

    CMC is held together by four very large bolts.

    It may not mean anything to you now, but if you hit an underwater obstruction, those extra bolts could be the difference between life and death.
