RHODAN RAM Trolling Motor Stabilizer

Picture this: you're out on the water, battling choppy waves after a long day of chasing bass, and your trolling motor starts flailing around in its stowed position. That annoying bounce not only distracts you but risks damaging the shaft or head over time. Enter the RHODAN RAM Trolling Motor Stabilizer (model A00180)—a game-changer designed specifically to lock down your motor's head securely during those rough rides back to the dock.

Engineered for Unmatched Stability

This 5-inch stabilizer leverages the trusted RAM mount system with a robust 1.5-inch C-size ball, creating a rock-solid connection that absorbs shocks and vibrations. Unlike flimsy straps or makeshift solutions, it clamps firmly without drilling or permanent modifications, keeping everything in place even when swells hit hard. Anglers who fish big waters swear by this setup for extending the life of their gear.

Why Every Serious Angler Needs One

• Prevents Damage: Stops the motor head from slamming repeatedly, reducing wear on pivots, cables, and electronics.
• Quick Stow and Go: Deploys in seconds for fast transitions from fishing to trailering.
• Marine-Tough Build: Constructed from high-grade composites and metals that laugh off saltwater corrosion and UV exposure.
• Versatile Fit: Works seamlessly with RHODAN motors and pairs perfectly with other RAM-compatible setups on your boat.

In real-world testing on everything from choppy lakes to open bays, this stabilizer has proven itself by eliminating that dreaded "whack-whack" noise and giving skippers peace of mind.

Simple Installation That Anyone Can Handle

No tools required beyond what's already on your boat. Here's a step-by-step:

1. Mount the RAM base to your trolling motor's stow bracket using the included hardware.
2. Attach the C-size ball arm to the motor head's mounting point.
3. Connect the stabilizer arm—adjust the tension for a custom fit.
4. Test in calm water, then hit the rough stuff with confidence.

Most users have it ready in under 10 minutes, and it stays put season after season.

Tailored for Rough Water Warriors

When winds kick up and waves build, a loose trolling motor can turn a triumphant trip into a headache. This stabilizer shines in those conditions, mimicking the stability tech found in premium outboards. It's especially handy for kayak anglers, bass boats, or multi-species hunters who push their vessels hard. Pair it with your RHODAN setup for that factory-fresh feel every time you stow.

Compatibility and Customization Tips

Built around the universal RAM C-ball (1.5 inches), it integrates flawlessly with RHODAN trolling motors and extends to Minn Kota, Motorguide, or any setup with compatible RAM bases. For extra security in extreme conditions, combine it with RAM's double-socket arms. Always double-check your motor's head dimensions for the perfect match—it's forgiving but precise.
