Needs some help/advice.I got a 14 ft fiberglass V-bottom bass boat with a 50hp yamaha.I'm having a new transome put in this weekend.I'm gonna install a jack plate on it after the transom gets fixed.Thinking about installing a 4 or 5inch setback.Do you think 5 inches of setback is too much.I don't want a whole lot of strain on my transom.I'm thinking with the new transom I might be fine.What do yall think?This is a serious question.

No you'll be just fine with 5".

Especially with only a little 50 hp on it.


Don't sweat it.
