Description

There are many inflatable boats out there with hard bottoms yet without solid side walls or even a hard transom where a motor would clamp to and rest upon. Those are the kind of boats that have inspired, or even necessitated the creation of this glue-on mounting system.

The gluing-on of the control head portion is a very effective method for mounting a fish finder control head to any inflatable dinghy, run-about, or zodiac style inflatable boat. It’s an effective solution because it allows the user to install the fish finder wherever they may desire on the top of the inflatable bladder; so as to optimize proximity and viewing comfort. We also find it is safer when it’s not inside of your boat, on the floor somewhere for you to accidentally trip over when you are fighting that big fish of the day!

Glue/Adhesive is sold separately, for PVC fabricated boats we recommend:

CLIFTON URETHANE GLUE: https://www.nrs.com/product/1901/clifton-urethane-adhesive-la-4123
Hypalon boats we recommend the STABOND UK – 148 adhesive: http://www.nrs.com/product/1903/stabond-adhesive
If you are in Canada, check out the Aquabatics website for some good options: https://aqoutdoors.com/search?q=clifton

The Scotty’s glue on mount in this kit is fabricated from a flexible PVC.

For battery charging and maintenance we have an automatic charger available under our ACCESSORIES section of our shop on this website. Please do not use an automotive style charger as these units charge at 2 amps minimum continuously; which is too aggressive for the smaller batteries that come with our mounting kits.

NOTE CONCERNING BATTERY OPTIONS:

– SLA Packs (Sealed Lead Acid) do not come with charger
– Li-Ion (Lithium) Packs do come with a charger
