Very sold mount,

This review is from: National Products RAM-111 6 1/4" X 2" Marine Ram Universal Electronic Mount (Automotive)
This mount can easily handle the weight of the HDS-7 and probably the larger HDS-8 and 10 as well. The mechanism for tighting down the balls is well thought out. One side of the mount is spring loaded and applies more pressure to the opposite side. Therefore, you can loosen the mount and remove the entire thing while still attached to the GPS unit.

I'm using this on a Lowrance HDS-5 fishfinder GPS combo. The only potential problem I see would come from the small base. I installed the mount to a somewhat flimsey plastic dash and I was afraid that without a solid foundation it would wobble and could break off easily. I found a piece of vinyl that I was able to add under the dash to give it more strength. It's worked great so far. It's stable when moving across rough water. As important, with the loosening of one knob I can rotate the unit for easy viewing anywhere on the boat. And to secure the unit at the end of the day, I simply unplug the wiring from the unit, and, instead of loosening the two side screws on the Lowrance bracket, I loosen the main knob on the RAM and remove the whole assembly.

This is not the first Ram Mount product I own, and I can say that I've never been disappointed. The mounts are simple in design resulting in ease of operation, yet they are very sturdy. I really like how quickly the arm and platform attach and detach from the base. This lets me get my GPS / Fishfinder on and off of the Kayak quickly, saving time at the ramp / dock. If I had to suggest an improvement for the mount, then I'd wish for an integrated way to pass electrical wiring through the fixed mounting base. This would make for a cleaner looking installation on my kayak. I imagine that would make the base quite a lot larger though, and less universally applicable.Ram Mounts are one of only a few products / brands in which I will go out of my way to recommend to people.

Nice solid, sturdy mount for our Lowrance GPS/Depth finder. We have it mounted to a solid surface so no problems with jarring and bouncing while running in boat.

Ram mount,

This mount is just the right size and weight to use with a smaller screen sized locator. Don't know if a 7" screened unit would stay vertical in the rough pounding it can take in a bass boat.Finish and fit were as expected, just fine. |
