Overview
The Garmin 010-11849-17 is a suction cup mount that lets you place a compatible Garmin GT or CV transducer in the water without drilling into the boat. It is meant for temporary setups where the transducer needs to sit horizontal in the water.
This style of mount is a practical fit for kayaks, canoes, and other small boats where you want sonar for the day and want everything to come off again for storage or transport.
Because it relies on suction, it holds best on a surface that is smooth and clean. Plan a spot where the transducer face stays submerged at the speeds you run and where the cable can be secured so it does not tug on the mount.
Key features
- Suction cup attachment for temporary mounting on a surface that is smooth and non-porous
- Supports compatible Garmin GT and CV transducers and keeps the transducer horizontal in the water
- No drilling for quick installs on boats where you do not want permanent hardware
- Easy to remove for trailering, launching, storage, or moving a transducer between boats
- Useful for test-fitting transducer placement and cable routing before committing to a permanent mount
Installation and setup
Clean the mounting surface and the suction cup so there is no grit that can break the seal. A small amount of water on the cup can help it seat evenly.
Set the mount so the transducer sits level in the water and is clear of hull features that can introduce bubbles. Secure the cable with a strain-relief point nearby so wave action does not pull on the bracket or connector.
On the water, re-check the seal after the first few minutes and any time the boat takes a hard bump or crosses wakes.
Compatibility and fit
This mount is intended for Garmin GT and CV transducers. Confirm the transducer you are using matches the mounting interface for this suction cup setup and that you have a flat mounting area near the waterline.
If you are running a different transducer style or a permanent installation, a fixed transom mount or another dedicated mounting method is usually the better match.
Use cases on board
This is a good match for anglers running a portable fishfinder on a kayak or canoe, and for boaters who want to move a transducer between boats for weekend trips. It also helps when you are troubleshooting sonar performance and want to try a new location without making new holes.
Maintenance and care
Rinse with fresh water after saltwater use and let it dry before storage. Keep the sealing surface free of nicks and avoid storing it with heavy pressure on the cup so it keeps its shape.
