They slide over the mount bases and match the existing base hole pattern, so the installation does not require drilling additional holes when used with the compatible Grand Slam mount pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade for TACO Grand Slam outrigger installations where extra base support is needed on a T-top, hard top, or gunnel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with GS-280, GS-2801, GS-380, and GS-390 Grand Slam mount bases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\" x 6.5\" plate size gives added load distribution at the mounting point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4\" anodized aluminum construction helps the plates handle marine use and exposure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatches the existing Grand Slam base hole pattern, so no additional drilling is required for compatible installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e320 Grit Brite anodized finish gives the installation a clean appearance around the outrigger base.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as a pair for port and starboard outrigger mounting points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese backing plates are a practical fit for center consoles and fishing boats running Grand Slam outriggers on hard tops or gunnels. The plate sits at the outrigger mount base to spread load across a larger area, helping reduce stress on the mounting surface when the outriggers are extended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, confirm that the existing outrigger mount is one of the compatible Grand Slam models and that the mounting surface has enough flat area for a 5\" x 6.5\" backing plate. As with any outrigger hardware, check fastener condition and mounting surface integrity before final tightening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pair is intended for TACO Grand Slam outrigger mount bases, including GS-280, GS-2801, GS-380, and GS-390.
