The T-H Marine Atlas 8" Standard Hydraulic Jack Plate (MPN AHJ-8V-DP) is a self-contained engine mount built for bass boats and bay rigs running heavy V6 and V8 outboards. It carries engines up to 300hp or 625 pounds dry weight and gives the operator on-the-fly height control to chase a better hole shot, run shallower, and smooth out the ride at speed. The 8-inch setback moves the powerhead aft for cleaner water at the prop. Anglers who already run quality trolling motors and want the same precision from the big motor are the buyers this plate is built for.
What sets the Atlas apart is the self-contained hydraulic system built directly into the plate, with no separate pumps or reservoirs to mount in the bilge. The 2500 psi pump raises and lowers the engine in under 8 seconds across a 5-to-7-inch range. The Rod and Slot lift design uses high-tech engineered polymer rods that T-H Marine rates as six times more abrasion resistant than steel and self-lubricating, so there's no metal-on-metal wear under load. A reinforced safety cable helps secure the engine in the event of a component failure, and a two-pin pump removal makes service quick. The plate measures 16-3/8" wide by 12-1/2" tall and is pre-drilled to accept popular shallow-water anchor brackets, though fitment varies by setback and anchor model.
This plate fits anglers who fish skinny water and need to trim engine height fast as depth changes through the day. Raise it to run flats and creek mouths, drop it for cruising the open lake, all from the helm. The polished aluminum finish holds up in fresh and salt service. The frame carries a lifetime warranty, with a 3-year warranty on the pump and actuator, which is assembled in the U.S.A. Pair it with a matching hole shot plate or a hydraulic gauge kit, and browse our other outboard accessories to finish the rig.
The Atlas 8" Standard Hydraulic plate is rated for engines up to 300hp or up to 625 pounds dry weight, per T-H Marine specifications. That covers most heavy V6 and V8 outboards used on bass and bay boats. Confirm your motor's dry weight against the 625-pound limit before mounting.
The self-contained 2500 psi pump moves the engine through its full 5-to-7-inch range in under 8 seconds. The system is built directly into the plate, so there are no separate pumps or reservoirs to mount elsewhere in the boat.
T-H Marine backs the frame with a lifetime warranty and covers the pump and actuator for 3 years. The hydraulic actuator is assembled in the U.S.A. Warranty details have varied across resellers, but this reflects the current manufacturer policy.
The plate is pre-drilled to accept popular shallow-water anchor brackets from leading brands. Compatibility can vary depending on your setback size and the specific anchor model, so verify your bracket's mounting pattern against the 8-inch setback before ordering.
This is the 8-inch setback version, which moves the powerhead aft for cleaner water at the prop. The plate itself measures 16-3/8 inches wide by 12-1/2 inches tall, with a polished aluminum finish.
