It is sized for boats from 32 ft to 50 ft and uses a Twist \u0026amp; Lock pole connection, so the poles can be secured without pins or bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mount suits serious trolling spreads where crew need to deploy, adjust, and stow outriggers safely from the deck. The base uses cast stainless steel and machined aluminum, with safety detents for controlled rotation and a locking head that helps stop the outrigger poles from creeping downward while in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwist \u0026amp; Lock pole connection secures compatible Carbon Fiber Tele-Outriggers without pins or bolts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeck-level lift and rotation control keeps crew off the hardtop during setup and adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Carbon Fiber Tele-Outriggers up to 24 ft long.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for offshore sport-fishing boats from 32 ft to 50 ft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast stainless steel and machined aluminum construction handles the load, torque, and whip created by outrigger poles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety detents help prevent uncontrolled rotation, with controlled 180 degree rotation available when needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-detented lifting crank handle locks flush into the base, while the outward rotation handle gives a secure grip during adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes matching 6 in x 8 in x 1\/2 in oval backing plates for added support at the mounting location.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo port or starboard designation, which simplifies layout and replacement planning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase hole pattern matches TACO Marine Grand Slam models, which can make upgrades cleaner on boats already using that footprint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs with optional 6 degree wedge plates, sold separately, when top angle or alignment correction is needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by a 3-year limited warranty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GS-500 is intended for hardtop and T-top outrigger installations where the mounting surface can support the load of a full offshore spread. The included oval backing plates help spread that load, but the top structure should be checked carefully before drilling, especially on older boats or tops that have been modified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause there is no port or starboard designation, the pair can be positioned without matching a dedicated left or right base. For arched tops or installations where pole alignment needs correction, compatible 6 degree wedge plates can be added separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and use on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mount is built for use with Carbon Fiber Tele-Outriggers and should not be treated as a universal outrigger base for every pole style. It is a strong match for offshore center consoles and sport-fishing boats running trolling spreads, dredges, and repeated outrigger adjustments during long days offshore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Twist \u0026amp; Lock connection is especially useful for crews who want a cleaner pole connection process without lining up pin holes on a moving boat. The deck-level handles also make day-to-day use more practical when the outriggers need to be raised, rotated, or stowed during changing sea conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair of GS-500 Grand Slam outrigger mounts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching oval backing plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023080026293,"sku":"QBP664959","price":4471.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1331360_qbp664959.jpg?v=1780191680","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp664959","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
