Turn the screen toward the helm, away from the sun, or out of the way when you're done. It's molded from UV-stabilized fiberglass-reinforced plastic, so it takes the sun and salt without fading or getting brittle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever tried to read a fish finder with the sun blasting across the screen, you already know why a rotating mount earns its keep. The RAILBLAZA Rotating Platform is a low-profile base that lets you spin your display a full 360 degrees. Turn it toward the helm when you're running, swing it toward the bow when you're working a shoreline, or angle it out of the glare when the sun drops low. When you're done for the day, rotate it flat and out of the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe platform measures 6.3 inches wide, 2.4 inches deep, and just 1.8 inches tall. That low height matters. It keeps a compact fish finder, chartplotter, or depth finder sitting close to the dash instead of perched up high where it blocks your sightline or catches a knee. On a small center console, a bay boat, or a tiller-steer jon boat, that extra bit of clearance is the difference between a clean helm and a cluttered one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's molded from UV-stabilized fiberglass-reinforced plastic in black. That's a mouthful, but here's what it means on the water. The glass reinforcement gives the base real stiffness, so it doesn't flex and rattle under your electronics. The UV stabilizer keeps the black from chalking out and turning gray after a couple of seasons in the sun. We've seen plenty of cheap plastic mounts go brittle and crack. This one's built to stay put.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward. The base bolts down through its mounting flange, and we always recommend drilling proper pilot holes first, especially on a gelcoat console. Skip the pilot holes and you risk star-cracking the gelcoat around each screw. On a thin aluminum hull or a soft deck, back the mount with a plate or a fender washer underneath so the screws have something solid to bite into. On a center console that sees real chop, through-bolting beats self-tappers every time. Self-tappers have a habit of working loose when you're pounding across a two-foot slop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works well beyond the powerboat crowd too. Kayak anglers and small dinghy owners like it because the compact footprint doesn't eat up deck space, and the low stance keeps the center of gravity down where it belongs on a tippy hull. Mount it to a flat section of deck or a rigging plate and you've got a display you can spin to face you no matter which way you're pointed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 360-degree swivel is the whole point, so give it a spot where the display can actually turn without banging the wheel or a grab rail. Once it's set, you can share one screen between the person running the boat and the person up front watching structure. That's handy on a smaller boat where you don't have room, or budget, for a second display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quick word on upkeep. If you run in salt, hit the swivel with a little marine grease once or twice a season. The pivot can stiffen up over time if it's left dry, and a dab of grease keeps it turning smooth for years. As for fit, this platform is sized for compact and mid-size fish finders and chartplotters. It isn't the mount for a big, heavy multifunction display. The larger the screen, the more strain it puts on the swivel, so match the platform to a display it can actually hold steady.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottom line, it's a simple, well-made rotating base that solves a real problem for a fair price. If you're running a compact sounder or a small chartplotter and you're tired of fighting glare and awkward viewing angles, this is an easy upgrade. Order before 3 PM Eastern and we'll usually get it out the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e360-degree rotation: spin the display toward the helm, the bow, or away from glare, then flat out of the way when you're done\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow 1.8-inch profile: keeps compact electronics close to the dash and out of your sightline\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6.3 in x 2.4 in footprint: compact base fits tight helms, bay boat dashes, and kayak decks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUV-stabilized fiberglass-reinforced plastic: stays stiff under load and holds its black color in the sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-down mounting flange: bolts solid to gelcoat, aluminum, or a rigging plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSized for compact and mid-size fish finders, chartplotters, and depth finders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-key black finish that blends into most helms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized RAILBLAZA reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow far does the platform rotate?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA full 360 degrees.
