T-H Marine JPZHSP-8 8 Inch Hot Shot Hole Shot Plate for Z-Lock JPZ-8 Jack Plates
The T-H Marine JPZHSP-8 is an 8 inch Hot Shot Hole Shot Plate built for the Z-Lock series of manual jack plates. It bolts to the bottom of a Z-Lock manual jack plate (fits the JPZ-8 model) to change how the boat comes out of the hole. By dramatically reducing water drag at takeoff, the plate delivers an 18 to 20 percent improvement in hole shot, translating to roughly 2 to 3 seconds faster time out of the hole compared to running without it. It also functions as a center trim tab, helping the boat settle onto plane and stay there at lower speeds while virtually eliminating porpoising.
The JPZHSP-8 is finished in gunmetal gray and ships individually boxed for straightforward replacement or first-time installation on a Z-Lock manual jack plate. It is part of a sized lineup so owners of different Z-Lock jack plate models can match the correct plate to their setup.
