It is rated for engines up to 300 max HP and provides a 4 inch setback. Unlike competitor designs that require separate setback spacers to reach the proper setback, the Versa Jac uses a one-piece design that achieves the setback directly, simplifying installation and reducing the number of parts that can loosen or fail over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate is pre-drilled for side mount power poles, so accessories can be added without additional fabrication. Manual adjustment is handled through a screw assembly that can be operated while the boat is in the water, and automotive-style grease nipples are built in for easy lubrication of the tension rods. When an owner is ready to move to all-hydraulic operation, the manual screw assembly can be removed with a few basic hand tools and swapped for a hydraulic cylinder kit, with the pump mounted inside the boat for protection from the elements and long service life. The structure carries a limited lifetime warranty, and the hydraulic pump option (when installed) carries a 5 year warranty excluding water damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bob's Machine Shop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100-504100-NOPC-NOSPN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jack Plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSetback:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual, upgradeable to hydraulic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft-grade aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\/Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Horsepower Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-drilled for side mount power poles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited lifetime warranty on structure; 5 year warranty on hydraulic pump upgrade (excludes water damage)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the maximum horsepower rating for the Bob's Machine Shop 4 Inch HD Versa Jac?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Versa Jac jack plate (part number 100-504100-NOPC-NOSPN) is rated for engines up to 300 max HP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat setback does this jack plate provide?\u003c\/strong\u003e This Versa Jac jack plate provides a 4 inch setback in a one-piece design, rather than requiring separate setback spacers as some competing plates do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this jack plate be adjusted while the boat is in the water?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the manual screw assembly on the 4 Inch HD Versa Jac is designed to be adjusted while the boat is in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this manual jack plate be converted to hydraulic operation later?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Versa Jac's manual screw assembly can be removed with basic hand tools and replaced with a hydraulic cylinder kit and pump, which mounts inside the boat, when the owner is ready to upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the jack plate made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is constructed from high-quality, aircraft-grade aluminum with a silver finish, giving the manual Versa Jac the same look as Bob's Machine Shop's hydraulic jack line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this jack plate pre-drilled for power pole mounting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 100-504100-NOPC-NOSPN Versa Jac is pre-drilled for side mount power poles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does this jack plate weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Versa Jac 4 Inch HD manual jack plate weighs 46 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does this jack plate differ from other jack plates on the market?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Versa Jac uses a one-piece design to achieve its 4 inch setback, where many competing jack plates need add-on setback spacers, and it is the only jack plate in its line offering a factory upgrade path to hydraulic operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat warranty comes with this jack plate?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 4 Inch HD Versa Jac structure carries a limited lifetime warranty; if the hydraulic pump upgrade is added, that pump carries a separate 5 year warranty that excludes water damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the tension rod lubricated on this jack plate?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Versa Jac uses automotive-style grease nipples on its tension rods for easy lubrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is this jack plate manufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bob's Machine Shop Versa Jac jack plate is made in Florida, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bob's Machine Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027465314523,"sku":"BOB-100-504100","price":951.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/61Qo8SikgsL.jpg?v=1785331107","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/bobs-machine-shop-4-inch-hd-versa-jac-manual-jack-plate-aluminum-up-to-300-hp","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
