The mount uses a 1 inch (25.4 mm) ball joint so you can angle the screen where you can actually read it underway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is the base hardware only; the device-specific mounting bracket or cradle that holds your unit is sold separately. It is commonly paired with mounts for GPSMAP 276Cx, GPSMAP 66i\/66sr\/67\/67i, Montana 600 Series, Tread, and zumo models including 395LM, 396 LMT-S, 595LM, XT, and XT2.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 inch (25.4 mm) ball joint interface for flexible positioning with standard 1 inch ball socket arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting plate uses an AMPS hole pattern for attaching compatible Garmin cradles and powered mounts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eU-bolt style clamp hardware for round rails and handlebars, with protective rubber caps on the exposed ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternate base for mounting at a brake or clutch reservoir location when a U-bolt clamp is not practical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevice cradle or mounting bracket is required and not included with this kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with GPSMAP 276Cx, GPSMAP 66i\/66sr\/67\/67i, Montana 600 Series, Tread, and zumo 395LM\/396 LMT-S\/595LM\/XT\/XT2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a boat, pick a mounting spot that stays rigid in chop and keeps the screen in your normal sight line without blocking gauges or steering movement. After tightening the clamp hardware, pull on the arm and plate to confirm there is no rotation, then re-check fasteners after the first few hours underway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are using a powered cradle, plan the cable run before final tightening so the lead has slack for steering and trim movement and does not chafe on sharp edges. The mount itself is purely mechanical; any power and data connections depend on the cradle you add.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit does not care whether your vessel is 12 V or 24 V. Power, charging, or data wiring comes from the specific cradle or powered mount matched to your Garmin unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor rail installs, measure your tube diameter and make sure the U-bolt seats cleanly without forcing it. If the rail is smaller than the clamp profile, use a suitable shim so the clamp tightens evenly and does not mark the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis setup makes sense when you want a removable handheld GPS at the helm, a simple navigation screen on a tender, or one Garmin device that moves between the boat and a motorcycle or off-road setup. It is also handy on smaller center consoles where dash space is limited and a rail mount keeps the unit reachable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse the hardware with fresh water after heavy spray or saltwater exposure and check the fasteners periodically for loosening from vibration. If the mount lives in direct sun, inspect the rubber caps and spacers and replace them if they start to crack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting plate with 1 inch ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandlebar U-bolt base with 1 inch ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake or clutch reservoir base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-socket arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eU-bolt with protective rubber tip covers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware including bolts, Nylock nuts, spacers, and lock washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269301072053,"sku":"QBP348623","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1299395_qbp348623.jpg?v=1771543161","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp348623","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
