got my boat with no ride plate. Berkeley pump set back a few inches so the cover hole is right under the fiberglass (transom). is a ride plate needed that bad?

If there's no shoe on it there's why. If there's a shoe I would get one made.

The ride plate is going to help because it makes your boat think that it's longer and it will help handle better at speed
