A jack plate with a single solid engine plate and a single solid transom plate. The transom plate features one or more sleeves integrated therein. The engine plate is connected to one or more sleeve rods that insert into the sleeves when the engine plate is lowered with respect to the transom plate. The sleeves each feature a narrow backwards facing slot through which the engine plate connects to each sleeve rods. Each sleeve rod is equipped with a linear bearing and a proprietary material that reduces friction. Only a single end of each sleeve rod is connected to the jack plate. The other, free end, of each sleeve rod passes through a first and a second end of the sleeve into which it is inserted. The configuration of the sleeves, sleeve rods and plates allows the device to be shorter, thinner and narrower thereby taking up less space.
