Mounts to Tracker boats versatrack rail system.  The mounting has a nickle plated steel plate on top to hold the baseplate.

Baseplate is a welded aluminum baseplate 8.25inch long and uses nylon thumbscrews to hold the baseplate to the Versatrack Bracket.

The nylon thumbscrews act as a strain relief to prevent system or transducer damage upon impacts with obstacles.

Fits Tracker boats with gunnels that are <4.5 inches wide.

• Grizzly Panfish 16
• Pro 160

• ProTeam 175 TXW Tournament Edition
• ProTeam 190TX and TX Tournament Edition
• Guide V-16 Laker
• ProGuide V Series 165 and 175

Downrod length is 48 inches and fits the boats above when used in either seated or standing postions.

LVS34 Transducer mounting inclues a bracket to allow all 3 positions of the transducer:  Forward view, Down view, and Perspective view while maintaining the transducer as close as possible to the center line of the downrod.  This centered location keeps the downrod more stable when the boat and downrod are moving through the water.

Telescoping handle is included to allow comfortable positioning of the handle for use.  Handle can be extended between 12 inch and 18 inches in total length.

Transducer cables run thru the center of the downrod to help protect against damage caused by hitting underwater obstacles.

Downrods are not secured to baseplates.  The downrod is set into the baseplate when fishing and then lifted out and placed in the boat when travelling at high speeds.  Maximum speed for the downrod in the water is approx 4mph.

Baseplates are easily removed from the mounting bracket with a few turns of the thumbscrews.
