Bob’s Machine
Since 1978, Bob’s Machine has brought innovation to the jack plate market. The first jack plates rated to 300hp, the first to offer multiple setbacks. The first to offer color options. At Bob’s, jack plates aren’t just one of our lines of products. They are our main line. We want nothing more than the best boating experience possible.
We are always updating our technology and jacks. We have added new CNC mills with new technology. New 3d modeling programing. New powder coating and hydrographics facilities. These all keep us ahead of the game and not limited to outsourcing like other companies.

Hydraulic Jack Plates
Hydraulic jack plates move your engine vertically with the touch of a button.
Bob’s Machine Shop’s new hydraulic jack plate line, “Action Series Jack Plate™”, offers new technology in the Jack Plate market. The first Bob’s Jack plate to offer a pump inside the jack plate structure, saving boaters room inside the boat, and eliminating the need to mount a pump inside the boat. This is a great OEM feature to help save time in rigging.
Manual Jack Plates
Manual Jack Plates . Adjust the height of your engine manually with bolts/nuts instead of with hydraulics.
Bob’s Machine Shop’s Versa Jac jack plate line, offers new technology in the Jack Plate market. The first & only jack plate to offer an upgrade kit for boaters to convert to Hydraulic at a later date!
Made of high-quality, aircraft-grade aluminum, the patent pending Versajac™ has the same look as Bob’s popular line of hydraulic jacks. It is rated for engines up to 300 hp and is available in 4″, 6″, 8″, 10″, 12″ & 14″ setbacks as well as our mini jack plate line. Adjusting the jackplate for optimum results is easily done while the boat is in the water. When it’s time to upgrade from manual to all-hydraulic operation, converting the jack is simple. Using a few basic hand tools, remove the Versajac’s manual screw assembly and swap it out for the new hydraulic cylinder kit. Then install the pump inside the boat. All BMS’s hydraulic pumps are designed to mount inside for longevity and protection from the elements. Jack plates have “limited lifetime warranty” and pumps have a 5 year warranty (excluding water damage).
