 Re: GTR reverse plate
I Will post pictures up sometime today, I have 50 in stock. The reverse plates work great. these will not void any warranty, they dont affect any performance in forward. this plate doesnt get caught up in the vegitation. It just gives you ALOT more Reverse power. It also keeps the water from coming over the transom. It keeps most of the mud out of the boat when using reverse on the mud If you buy one and are not satisfied with the performance. I will buy it back!
$200 and I can ship if you need,

 Re: GTR reverse plate
Here is what Calen's GTR Reverse plate looks like installed on my motor. I have ran it in Caddo, Pecan Island, and Lake Fausse Point. THats 3 different Terrain types and the thing just works. You dont know it is back there until you squeeze the reverse lever and it BACKS the fawk up!

 Re: GTR reverse plate
I've been wanting to get one since I talked to Marcus and Paul about it,but I have been too busy to take a ride. With dove and teal season coming soon then the trout moving to the inside I doubt I'll have one on the motor until Febuary

 Re: GTR reverse plate
I got one and my motor backs up like a 40 merc. They are well worth it. I can back up wide open in mud, grass, or open water and not a drop of anything gets in the boat.

 Re: GTR reverse plate
So, what you guys are saying is that you need to purchase a $200 part to make the reverse work properly? Not only that, but if you make one yourself it voids your warranty? Hmmm, has the lil fella been hanging out in S. LA recently?

 Re: GTR reverse plate
NO, my reverse works properly...i'll gladly pay $200 bucks so that when i hit the reverse i don't have water coming over the transom...to me, not a big deal, but when momma or a 5 year old see that...they think we are going down...plus i just got a little bonus $$$ for my 15 year anniv. with my company...so momma doesn't have to know about that money!!!

 Re: GTR reverse plate
We don't have alot of mud up here, just hard sandy bottom. I also have a hunt deck. So are yall saying these help in deep water too backing off a dock etc giving you more power in reverse, or does it really just shine in the mud/keeping water out of the boat?
