0 PK3 Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Picked up a RAM suction cup at Gander...works excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 anyfishwilldo Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I second the motion on the RAM mount. I have one in the boat, and the wheeler for my H2OC. The nice thing about the RAM mounts, is once you have the cradle and arm, you just need to buy the base for whatever, or wherever you want to mount it. I got my ATV mount at Gander, and the boat mount at Reeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 schweady Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Spendy, but rock-solid. They're done right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 CrappieAttitude Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Make sure you get the big suction cup. I have heard that the smaller one doesn't hold worth beans.CA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happened to get my bout mount at thorne brothers as well. The major reason is they had it in stock!!! The big box places, at least in my area, rarely have any of this stuff on the shelf. Click on my sponsor link below and then Click on the Thorne Brothers link. You should be able to find what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA Yeah, I wouldn't personally trust suction cup mounts for every situation. When I termed RAM as 'rock-solid,' I was speaking of their mounts in general. I don't own the suction cup style, but lots of folks swear by 'em in situations when the vibration isn't severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ralph Wiggum Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 My suction cup mount is similar to Pier's and mounted in the same place. Mine has a lever that twists to secure the suction cup to the glass. It is very solid. I think it cost me about $40. I'll try to get a picture of it later today.

I'll have to make the trip to Thorne Bros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Daze Off Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I got the permanent mounts for the boat - one for the console and one for up front. They even sell a magnifying glass the size of the H2O screen that mounts between the arm and the unit holder and has a goose-neck so you can move it in front of the unit when you want it and away when you don't.Got mine at Gander in MGDaze Off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ralph Wiggum Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Okay, here's what mine looks like. Like I said, it is pretty solid, and I bought it online. There are tons of possibilities out there as far as mounts go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HaywardBound Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Ryan, where did you get yours? (I like the twist lever thing). And do you guys have a problem with the power cord reaching your power source? Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ralph Wiggum Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Hayward,I ordered it online. Send me an e-mail (address in my profile) and I will get you the info. I'm sure I shoudn't post the link here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
