Not as advertised on fish finders and fish finders

I've given a 3 for the design because it's chunky but it's not as shown in the pictures. The device looks like you could screw it onto any base, but it's fairly hollow at the top and can only use pre-formed screw holes. I return mine.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • confusing

Perfect fit for Garmin Striker 5dv

This Scotty Post mount was used to mount my Garmin Striker 5dv viewfinder. The outer holes matched perfectly, but I had to enlarge the Garmin mount holes a bit to fit the #10 screws. The Scotty mount requires #10 nuts to keep it from turning. Ideal!

Pros
  • Wide Range
Cons
  • Zero

Bought for my Hummingbird

I had to install a Hummingbird 678c on the nose of my 13 foot Boston Whaler. It already had a female Scotty deck mount that I wanted to use.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • disappears

Some things to know before buying this bracket

This bracket appears to be very strong and works well for flush mounting on a Scotty 244 deck. However, some important things to know before you buy: It was mentioned that it does NOT have a solid top as shown. It has a hollow top with multiple screw holes. (It wasn't important for my purposes, but if it's important to you, keep that in mind.) 2) Also, as another reviewer mentioned, don't expect this to work for your fish finder. It didn't even come close to my Eagle Cuda sonar. The holes are…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly dented
