Raptor Jack Plate Adapter Bracket
The Minn Kota Raptor Jack Plate Adapter Bracket is a single-piece aluminum mounting accessory engineered to attach Minn Kota Raptor Shallow Water Anchors directly to a boat's jack plate. This design provides heavy-duty support and positional adjustment without requiring you to drill directly into your boat's hull or fiberglass transom.
Product
The brackets are highly customizable based on your boat's specific transom configuration, clearance needs, and structural layout and Mounting Side: Available in designated Port or Starboard models.
- Setback Distance: Offers 2-inch, 5-inch, or 8-inch options to push the anchor backward and clear trim tabs or hull contours.
- Vertical Rise: Available in 4-inch or 6-inch vertical rises to ensure proper clearance above the water line and the outboard engine cowling.
- Color Finishes: Offered in standard Black or White powder-coated finishes to match your shallow-water anchor and boat aesthetic.
Key Specifications
- Construction Material: Light-weight, high-strength extruded aluminum construction.
- Corrosion Resistance: High-grade powder-coated exterior finish designed to prevent oxidation and resist harsh saltwater or freshwater environments.

Installation & Compatibility
- Jack Plate Match: These brackets match pre-drilled side holes found on major hydraulic and manual jack plates, such as T-H Marine Atlas plates.
- Engine Clearance: Minn Kota dictates checking clearance by rotating your outboard engine fully side-to-side after loose assembly before finalizing the layout torque.
- Torque Rating: Mount bolts connecting the bracket to the jack plate must be tightened to a minimum of 50 ft-lbs. using a torque wrench.
- Talon Exclusion: These brackets are exclusively optimized for articulating Raptor anchors and are not intended for use with telescoping Minn Kota Talon anchors.
