Reply To: Sea Star Jackplate

I ended up with a defective sea star jack plate, 5080R, and have some issues getting replacement. Just found out that the standard 5080R is not a compatible replacement and it needs to be specifically 5080R-BC, for bass cat. Just an FYI. It took 2 days on the phone with Sea Star, now Dometic, and they finally determined the bass cat compatible is a specific mounting bracket design and I am finally getting the correct one shipped. Fingers crossed. The warranty people have taken notes and will discuss with the higher ups to add the “BC” to the model number sticker to avoid confusion in the future.
