Marine mounting is a different challenge than vehicle or home mounting. Salt water corrodes bare metal, constant vibration loosens cheap hardware, and suction cups simply do not work in a marine environment. The guides below cover phones, tablets, fish finders, GPS units, antennas, transducers, boat cup holders, flag mounts, kayak track systems, and Scotty system accessories organized by device type and use case.
Marine mounting rule of thumb: Avoid suction cups and bare metal hardware on any boat exposed to salt water. Use marine-grade powder-coated or stainless steel mounts, bolt or clamp to fixed surfaces, and always use a safety tether on expensive electronics.
