MotorGuide Great White Removable Mounting Plate
MotorGuide Great White Removable Mounting Plate Product Description
Upgrade your boating setup with the MotorGuide Great White Removable Mounting Plate, a game-changer for anglers who value convenience without compromising on strength. Crafted from rugged high-impact composite material, this plate lets you detach your trolling motor in seconds—perfect for those days when you need to clear the deck for watersports, trailering, or simply stowing gear. Its thoughtful design slides effortlessly into place, secured by a reliable stainless steel pin and tab system, ensuring rock-solid stability on the water while making removal a breeze.
Why Anglers Choose the Great White Mounting Plate
This isn't just any bracket; it's engineered for real-world marine demands. The high-impact composite shrugs off impacts from docks, gear, or rough handling, standing up to the corrosive saltwater environment that plagues lesser materials. White finish blends seamlessly with most boat decks, keeping your setup looking sharp season after season. Plus, it comes complete with an Allen key for those quick adjustments, so you're always ready to hit the water.
Key Advantages Over Traditional Mounts
- Lightning-Fast Setup and Teardown: Slide, pin, and go—no tools needed for daily use, saving precious time at the ramp.
- Universal Versatility: Pre-drilled patterns match a wide array of traditional trolling motor bases, with easy mod options for extended models.
- Bombproof Security: Inner plate bolts down with stainless steel hardware and nylon lock nuts for a foundation that won't budge under thrust.
- USA-Made Durability: Built to last, reflecting MotorGuide's commitment to quality that serious fishermen trust.
- Multi-Boat Friendly: Ideal for flats skiffs chasing reds, bass boats on tournaments, or ski boats doubling as fishing platforms.
Perfect Fit for Your MotorGuide Setup
Designed with MotorGuide owners in mind, the MGA515A2 pairs flawlessly with Gator Flex 360, 20.8, 21, 21R, 24, and 24R mounts, as well as X3, X3D, and X5 systems. The smaller inner plate anchors securely to your deck, while the outer plate glides over it from the bow, locking in via a rear pin. For those with slightly longer mounts, simple hole additions extend compatibility without hassle. This quick-release system keeps your trolling motor protected and portable, whether you're chasing stripers in the bay or bonefish on the flats.
Real-World Benefits for Everyday Boaters
Imagine launching at dawn: motor off in under a minute, deck clear for casting or tubing. Trailering? No heavy lifting or deck gouges. Maintenance? Easy access without permanent fixtures. Boaters report fewer scratches on gelcoat decks and quicker trips from water to garage. In harsh conditions—think pounding wakes or accidental gear drops—this plate's composite toughness prevents cracks or failures that sideline lesser options.
