Where did you get the bow ring attachment for your gps? I'd like to mount mine the same way but I can't find one locally.

I haven't looked real hard on the net.

It's called a rail mount, stock item at boaters world.

It's worked well for about 5 years now. IT will stay there until I get an arch ;D

Here's mine for $13 without much looking.

This looks like what Slot used...of course the moron at West Marine who set up this pic had the mount turned 90* from where you'll use it ...

You won't need the adjustable one and ya might wanna shop around...West's prices are normally higher than everybody else...


Hey Slot...lookin' back thru your NEW TOP(NICE) pics and your new rod-holders...do you ever pull any Side-Planer boards?...they're makin' some real light weight ones these days that work REALLY NICE!!... 8) ...

Man, the guy that took those photo's for West must have alot of boating experience ???

I've not messed with planer boards yet. As I understand it, the light ones work great for inland waters, but for the chop we get on the Chesapeake or the OCean (even worse) they don't work well. The boards they use over here are heavy and 3-6' long made out of wood. Those are a pain to store on any boat. ::)

thanks air and reel,

I haven't had any time to make a run to Boaters world, west or basspro. Those are the only 3 in my area for major boat supplies and their all in the next state.

I'm gonna need to make a run up to there. I have the antenna cable hole and I was looking for a double plug wire plug so I don't have to cut a new hole. I would think there's got to be one of those out there also.

AIr, Where do you live? I saw where you were talking about fishing in chesp bay.

I'm not far from Chincoteague, but about 70 miles north of the CBBT.
