The Benefits of Installing a Hole Shot Plate on Your ATLAS Jack Plate

October 07, 2024

If you're a boat owner looking to maximize performance, especially when accelerating and getting on plane, installing a Hole Shot Plate on your ATLAS Jack Plate can make that happen. This simple add-on can enhance your boat’s overall efficiency in a few key ways. Here’s why adding a Hole Shot Plate will help you achieve the performance you are looking for.

#1 Improved Acceleration and Faster Hole Shot

One of the main benefits of the Hole Shot Plate is its ability to reduce drag. When you take off, water typically catches inside the bottom of the jack plate, slowing down acceleration and making it harder to get on plane quickly. A Hole Shot Plate blocks that area, preventing water from getting trapped, allowing your boat to accelerate faster and achieve a quicker hole shot.

#2 Reduction in Porpoising

Porpoising, the up-and-down bouncing of a boat's bow when at higher speeds, can be frustrating for boaters. A Hole Shot Plate helps in minimizing this effect. By improving the balance and drag reduction during takeoff, it leads to a more controlled ride and decreases the chance of porpoising, making for a more enjoyable and smoother ride.

#3 Quick and Easy Installation

One of the best things about the Hole Shot Plate is how simple it is to install. With just a 7/16" wrench and the provided hardware, you can attach the plate in a matter of minutes. It’s a low-effort, high-impact upgrade that can make a noticeable difference in your boat’s performance.
