Garmin Tilt/Swivel Mount w/Quick-Release Cradle f/echoMAP™ Plus 6Xcv

Secure your Garmin echoMAP™ Plus 6Xcv chartplotter with confidence on the water using this versatile tilt/swivel mount equipped with a quick-release cradle. Designed specifically for marine enthusiasts who demand reliable performance during long days on the boat, this mount transforms your console into a customizable command center. Whether you're navigating choppy waters, tracking fish, or plotting your next course, its adjustable design ensures you always have the perfect view without constant readjustments.

Effortless Adjustability for Every Angle

One of the standout aspects of this mount is its smooth tilt and swivel mechanism, powered by user-friendly knobs that let you fine-tune the position in seconds. No more straining to see your screen in bright sunlight or at awkward helm angles. Anglers and sailors alike appreciate how it adapts to solo outings or crowded decks, keeping critical data like sonar readings and GPS waypoints front and center. The black plastic construction resists corrosion from saltwater spray, ensuring longevity even in harsh marine conditions.

Quick-Release Cradle: Install and Go

The genius of the quick-release cradle lies in its simplicity—route your power and transducer cables directly into the mount for a clean setup. Snap your echoMAP™ Plus 6Xcv unit in place with one hand, and you're ready to launch. Removing it for secure storage or transport is equally effortless, protecting your investment from theft or damage during off-season. This feature shines for boaters who frequently trailer their vessels or switch between multiple crafts.

Perfect Fit for echoMAP™ Plus 6Xcv Series

Tailored for the echoMAP™ Plus 63cv, 64cv, and 65cv models, this single-unit mount integrates seamlessly with Garmin's ecosystem. It supports the full functionality of these chartplotter/fishfinder combos, from ClearVü™ scanning sonar to preloaded coastal charts. Boaters upgrading from flush mounts often rave about the added flexibility, which enhances usability without compromising the unit's sleek profile on your dash or bulkhead.

Installation Tips for a Rock-Solid Setup

Getting this mount up and running is straightforward for most DIY boaters. Start by selecting a flat surface on your console or pedestal, then secure the base with marine-grade hardware. Pre-drill holes to prevent cracking the plastic, and apply sealant around the edges for waterproofing. Once mounted, connect your cables through the cradle's channels to minimize clutter. Test the tilt/swivel range under real-world conditions—like engine vibration or wakes—to confirm stability. Pro tip: Pair it with Garmin's flush mount kit for hybrid setups on larger consoles.

Built to Withstand the Marine Lifestyle

Crafted from durable, UV-resistant plastic, this mount holds up against relentless sun, moisture, and impacts common on fishing boats or yachts. It's lightweight yet sturdy, avoiding added strain on your boat's structure. Regular wipes with a mild soap solution keep it looking sharp, while the one-year coverage provides peace of mind. Serious boaters know that a reliable mount like this prevents distractions, letting you focus on the thrill of the catch or the horizon ahead.
