Utilizing the new Torqeedo Ultralight Kayak Mount here is images of Rick W’s upgrade install. Rick was previously using the Torqeeod Ultralight 403 Ball mount system. Since his 2014 Big Rig has the four molded in inserts at the stern designed to accept the Power Pole Micro anchoring system the installation was done with ease.
Rick’s Install Notes:
“Once I figured out how I wanted to secure, it was pretty straight forward. I used 1.5 inch screws in front holes and secured the level with locknut underneath. Sets correct heights and makes mount very stable. Second set of holes was 1.25 inch screws, no need for nut as the mount rests on the hull in very back. Perfect fit with single washer on top. As far as steering, I dropped the triangle a bit and let the connectors run under the mount. Seems to work perfect and stays clear of the mount, even with complete turn radius. I use foot turning, installed with initial setup a few years back. Tremendous improvement over the arm and am ready for the water.”
Nice work Rick! Looks Great!
