Upgrade your boating setup with the Garmin Bail Mount featuring a Quick Release Cradle, designed specifically for the ECHOMAP™ Ultra 2 12″ chartplotter. This sturdy surface mount lets you secure your device effortlessly while allowing smooth tilting for the perfect viewing angle, no matter the conditions on the water.
Seamless Convenience Meets Rugged Reliability
Picture this: you’re out on the open water, tracking fish or navigating tricky channels, and you need to stow your chartplotter quickly before docking. With the integrated quick-release cradle, simply unplug the cables from the mount and lift your ECHOMAP Ultra 2 away in seconds. No fumbling with screws or tools—just pure, hassle-free operation that keeps your focus on the adventure ahead.
Crafted from marine-grade materials, this bail mount withstands saltwater spray, UV exposure, and constant vibrations from rough seas. The adjustable knobs make fine-tuning the tilt straightforward, ensuring your screen stays glare-free and readable under direct sunlight or during early morning fog.
Key Features That Stand Out
Adjustable Tilt Mechanism: Knobs for precise positioning to match your eye level and lighting conditions.
Quick-Release Design: Pre-plug cables into the cradle for instant docking and undocking.
Surface-Mount Simplicity: Ideal for consoles, dashboards, or bulkheads without permanent modifications.
Corrosion-Resistant Build: Built to endure harsh marine environments season after season.
Perfect Fit: Tailored exclusively for the ECHOMAP™ Ultra 2 12″ model for a secure, wobble-free hold.
Why Boaters Swear by This Mount
Fishermen love how it keeps their sonar and charts accessible during long trolling sessions, while sailors appreciate the stability in choppy swells. It’s not just a mount—it’s an extension of your Garmin ecosystem, enhancing usability without cluttering your helm. Users report it cuts setup time in half, freeing you up for what matters: catching that trophy fish or safely reaching port.
Installation is a breeze for DIY enthusiasts. Clean your mounting surface, drill pilot holes if needed, secure the bail bracket with included hardware, attach the cradle, and route your power/data cables through the built-in grommets. Test the tilt and quick-release a few times, and you’re ready to launch.
Tips for Long-Lasting Performance
To maximize durability:
Rinse with fresh water after every saltwater outing to prevent buildup.
Tighten knobs periodically to counter vibration wear.
Route cables away from high-traffic areas to avoid snags.
Pair with Garmin’s protective covers for added scratch resistance when stowed.
