I was in the market for a gheenoe and found a nice 13ft for a good price and I wanted to know if a jackplate is something that I needed to run a 7hp motor.

Run it on the transom first

a Jackplate opens a BIG can or worms

Install a jack plate Now you need a cupped prop , then a foil then a torque tab then trim tabs ... Then the boat will be crabbing :-( ask me how i Know LoL

Keep it Simple !!!

No, it'll be fine, just make sure the transom is solid. I was running a Merc 9.9 2 stroke on a 13 with no issues.

Edit to add: Welcome to the forum, post pics of your boat if you buy it, we like Gheenoe's around here.

Check out these guys that have an interesting option. I've been messaging the owner on IG and he's been very responsive. I believe they are close to having their production model available.

okay cool thank you for the advice I am going to check it out and make sure everything is all good with it before the purchase. it is 1500 with the trailer so I dont know if its too good to be true

Well a "highsider" hull in good shape is worth $600 tops

Trailer is $300

and for $600 the motor better be jam up perfect ! 7 horse is an odd number (I sold an evenrude 15 for $250)
