Quick Release Ram Ball Mount for Lowrance Elite 7ti Question

[5-20]

Thanks! I'll try that. Appreciate it.

Still kinda curious if any of you guys with this type of mount feel confident enough in it to paddle out and back in through the surf with it?

For me, if the surf is bigger than 1-2' I'm launching and landing with my elite 7ti stowed in the hatch. I know many folks have high confidence in their surf skills, and don't feel like taking the time to stow.

Ever see a submerged sonar display? They don't survive very well. I have a kraken and I will launch through pretty much anything, as it handles surf pretty well. Regardless of your surf skills or perceived ability to time the sets, a 3' dumper can wreck your shit regardless of what mount you have.

I still don't think the quick release mount is attaching exactly right. Every time I try to move the fishfinder by grabbing the back of the screen so i can move it around a little bit, it ends up detaching from the mount very easily.

Show us a picture of how you’re mounting it. You may have the two tab bracket upside down.
