{"product_id":"qbp593845","title":"TACO Marine ShadeFin Adjustable Rod Holder Mount, 316L SS, 15-Degree Detents","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TACO Marine T10-3000-6 is an adjustable rod holder mount for adding a ShadeFin shade setup to a boat through an existing rod holder. It gives boaters a practical way to position shade over the helm, cockpit, or fishing area without committing to a fixed shade frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mount is made from Type-316L stainless steel with a high polish finish and works with the ShadeFin system and 1-1\/8-inch diameter outrigger poles. It seats into a standard T-top rod holder, using a gimbal-slot butt end, nylon sleeve, and locking knob to help keep the mount stable in normal boat use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAngle adjustment is handled with a Sure-Grip knob, with safety detents every 15 degrees so the shade can be set higher or lower as the sun moves. This is useful on center consoles, fishing boats, and other vessels where shade needs to move with the crew rather than stay in one fixed position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable rod holder mount for TACO Marine ShadeFin shade systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType-316L stainless steel construction with a high polish finish for exposed marine locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits standard T-top rod holders and can also be used with compatible gunnel rod holder accessories sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs with ShadeFin and 1-1\/8-inch diameter outrigger poles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSure-Grip knob allows controlled shade angle adjustment by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety detents every 15 degrees help hold the selected angle during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGimbal-slot butt end mates with the rod holder gimbal pin for proper seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon sleeve adds stabilization when the rod holder opening is larger than the mount shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-aligning notch and pin-locking hole help the mount sit securely in the holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the mount by inserting it into a firmly welded T-top rod holder and checking that the gimbal slot is properly engaged with the rod holder pin. The included nylon sleeve can be used when the rod holder opening needs additional support around the mount shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce the mount is seated, the locking knob secures it in place. The ShadeFin can then be inserted and adjusted with the Sure-Grip knob until the shade angle matches the sun position and the area being covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mount is intended for use with the TACO Marine ShadeFin system rather than as a fishing rod holder. It is a good match for boats that already have a suitable T-top rod holder and need portable shade over a helm seat, leaning post, cockpit station, or fishing position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, confirm that the rod holder is firmly mounted and positioned where the ShadeFin can open without interfering with antennas, outriggers, electronics, canvas, or crew movement. For gunnel-mounted use, a compatible adapter or telescopic rod holder accessory is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable layout works well for boaters who need shade that can shift throughout the day, especially during coastal cruising, dockside time, sandbar stops, and long fishing sessions. The stainless steel build and rod holder installation style make it practical for open boats where sun coverage needs to be added without taking up permanent deck space.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023071277237,"sku":"QBP593845","price":469.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1331514_qbp593845.jpg?v=1780191654","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp593845","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
