T-H Marine 6" Atlas Series Hot Shot™ Jack Plate Hole Shot Plate - Verado

The T-H Marine 6" Atlas Series Hot Shot™ Jack Plate Hole Shot Plate for Verado engines delivers a measurable performance gain during acceleration and initial planing. This bolt-on plate reduces water drag at takeoff, producing 18 to 20 percent better hole shot performance—translating to 2 to 3 seconds faster acceleration from rest. Built for marine operators and performance-oriented boaters who demand repeatable improvements without major equipment modifications, the Hot Shot plate integrates seamlessly with T-H Marine's Atlas Series jack plate system.

The plate weighs 1.65 lbs and fits the 6-inch Atlas configuration, optimized specifically for Verado engine mounting. Installation is straightforward—the plate attaches directly to the bottom of the jack plate without requiring additional tools or modifications to the powerhead or transom. The design principle is simple but effective: by reducing hydrodynamic resistance during the critical initial acceleration phase, the engine achieves quicker weight transfer and earlier planing. This is particularly valuable in tournament fishing, law enforcement marine operations, or any scenario where rapid response off the line matters.

This product is engineered for users running Verado powerheads with a 6-inch jack plate platform. The Hot Shot plate is a proven accessory in the offshore and competitive fishing markets, where millisecond gains in acceleration directly affect performance. Freshwater bass fishermen, saltwater guides, and patrol boat operators benefit from faster planing and improved fuel efficiency at cruise speed after the initial acceleration phase. T-H Marine's Hot Shot series represents an established, field-proven solution rather than an experimental modification.
