I would like to get an idea from those of you running a 12" unit on the bow, in particular a Lowrance HDS 12, how you mounted it. If you can share pictures as well that would be great. Thank you in advance for any info you can share.
I like the RAM MOUNT. As BCB said I alway fold mine flat or some wat flat while running or even transporting down the road. As I dont like bugs and debris hitting the back of the unit. Its is plenty sturdy never had any trouble with it.2013 PANTERA 2MERCURY 200 PRO XSMINNKOTA 80LB FORTREX25 fury

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the feedback. Pretty much confirms what I was thinking with regards to the RAM mount but I had been hearing a lot about other mounts and wanted to see what others had experienced.
Nothing handles rough water better than the factory gimbal mount alone, imo. I also like the sleek look it gives the unit down in the well, just set the tilt angle and done.
