Interact Drive Jackplate Controller

Dometic Interact Drive Jackplate Controller

The Dometic Interact Drive JC4500 (formerly known as the SeaStar ProTap) takes the guesswork out of setting jackplate height and engine trim, so you can get away from the dock quickly and confidently every time. By memorizing your preferred positions and recalling them at the touch of a button, the Interact Drive eliminates the need for manual adjustments each time you head out on the water.

Designed to work with any jackplate and trim control switch, the JC4500 gives you precise, predictable control over both jackplate height and engine trim. Fine-tuning is made simple through an intuitive controller interface that moves both systems in set increments, providing repeatable results without guesswork.

In Bay/Bass-B mode, the controller automatically adjusts to your preferred settings to help your boat reach maximum speed as quickly as possible. In Flats-F mode, it enhances shallow-water handling by moving the jackplate rapidly or in precise 2-inch increments, freeing you to focus on steering rather than manually holding a switch.

The Interact Drive also supports dual-engine synchronization, making it ideal for twin-engine applications. A 0–5 V jackplate height signal output, MFD integration, and CAN expandability round out a feature set designed for modern, connected boat systems. Durable and highly responsive, the JC4500 delivers reliable control for faster, safer, and more enjoyable time on the water.
