TACO Marine ShadeFin Mini Kayak Mount, For Sit-on-Top Kayaks, YakAttack GearTrac Compatible, 26.75 in Adjustable Base, Powder-Coated Aluminum, Misty Silver Finish

Overview

The TACO Marine T10-4000-14 is a ShadeFin Mini kayak mount made for adding TACO ShadeFin Mini shade support to most sit-on-top kayaks. The mount has outer sections that slide out from the center, letting the base adjust up to 26.75 inches wide so it can match different kayak deck widths and mounting layouts.

It works with most standard kayak railing systems, including YakAttack GearTrac, which makes it useful for anglers and recreational paddlers who already run track-mounted accessories. The mount weighs 2 lb 1.2 oz, so it adds shade support without putting a heavy load on a kayak setup.

The powder-coated aluminum construction and misty silver finish are suited to regular use around water, sun, and spray. This is the mounting hardware piece for the ShadeFin Mini system, not the shade itself.

Key features

• Adjustable base extends up to 26.75 inches wide for fitment across many sit-on-top kayaks.
• Pairs with most standard kayak railing systems, including YakAttack GearTrac.
• Powder-coated aluminum construction helps the mount handle outdoor marine exposure.
• Misty silver finish gives the mount a clean look that blends with many kayak layouts.
• Weighs 2 lb 1.2 oz, keeping the kayak shade setup easy to handle during installation and transport.
• Covered by a 3-year limited warranty.

Installation and fit

This mount is meant for kayaks where the ShadeFin Mini needs a stable base across the deck or accessory track area. The adjustable width helps account for different sit-on-top kayak shapes, but the available mounting area and rail placement should be checked before installation.

For track-based setups, confirm that the kayak railing system has enough clear space for the mount and does not interfere with rod holders, electronics, paddle clips, or other deck accessories. The included well nuts and mounting hardware support a clean installation when the mounting surface is suitable.

Use on board

This mount is a practical match for kayak anglers, paddlers, and small craft users who want ShadeFin Mini shade coverage without a large fixed frame. It is especially useful during long fishing sessions, slow paddling, or time spent drifting in open sun where shade makes the cockpit area more comfortable.
