[QUOTE="Kawriverrat, post: 124733, member: 2531"] This pic will explain it. Most are made from aluminum. You can in most cases run with your motor set a little higher with a properly set splash plate. I like using UHMW. A durable, stiff, plastic type material. This material is better than aluminum for a splash plate I think, because it has some give to it. Also if you decide to run a jack plate you wont end up trashing it like you would with aluminum should you raise your motor to high. I sold my boat, hope to buy a new Alweld soon. Otherwise I would get some pics of how I set mine up. [/QUOTE]
