A pan has a large central section in a rectangular configuration. The pan has parallel front and rear edges and parallel side edges. The side edges have upturned sections. The side edges have a plurality of apertures. The apertures couple the pan to side plates of a jack plate/hydraulic cylinder housing. The sides of the central section are in proximity to side plates adjacent to lower edges of side plates of a housing. The rear of the pan is in proximity to slots of a housing. The front of the pan is in proximity to front plates of a housing. In this manner the pan will abate the splashing of water onto a hydraulic cylinder during operation and use.
