I have finally decided to repower my '86 17' Montauk and am waiting for the new 90 hp Yamaha four stroke to arrive, which is going to take at least another week I am told. Does anyone have any experience with installing a jack plate with this setup - if so please share it because I am trying to decide whether or not to do it myself. In addition, please let me know how you like the engine on this boat. Thanks to all.
