DECK PLATES
Cannon deck plates prevent
deflection and add stability
to decks. Recommended for
attaching the downrigger
for initial installation or for
mounting accessories. They are
necessary to add extra strength
to the base material of the
boat. Options include Deck
Plate (Item No. 2200693).
SIDE/RAIL MOUNTS
Can be mounted to a welded
T-section. Side/Rail Mounts
(Item No. 2250940) can also be
used at the two rail section butt
joint. In both installations it is
recommended to use a non-slip
material, such as rubber or a
thin wood sheet, between
metal surfaces.
GIMBAL MOUNTS
Designed to fit medium-sized
flush mounted rod holders
built into the gunwale of larger
fishing boats and cruisers.
Only sturdy, high quality rod
holders should be used for this
temporary mounting system.
Gimbal mounts are available
in 9” or 12” post lengths with
Standard (Item No. 2250927 and
2250928) and Stainless Steel
options (Item No. 1903005
and 1903006).
