I have used a CMC Trim plate for an old outboard and it was awesome. I never thought it would work as well as it did. I would definitly get a hydraulic lift, manual sucks and you will never be happy. Would you want manual trim tabs or drive trim? The same applies here.

PS Where the hell were you during the PC poker Run?

Get the hydraulic. Bob's Machine has always had good plates.
