It's hard to beat an Atlas plate, IMO ...

Looks nice, but is it bringing anything better to the jackplate world than is already out there except the SeaStar name?

It isn't a new gadget... just a new name entering the market... sure looks pretty though!

#1 question: What does it cost? Looks cool but I wouldn't pay a premium for it. Unlike sishaneus above I have had years of trouble free service from Atlas and cant remember ever thinking a slow jack plate was holding me back. Did I mention that it looks cool though? :-)

I have not got the price for the new technology. "Patents pending" as I was told at the Basscat dealer meeting. However the standard series shown in the video is the same price as atlas.I am a fan of bobs machine shop, but majority of companies do not rig from factory with them.
