1. Select an appropriate area on the deck of the boat to install the
mount. Ensure the forward mounting screws will not penetrate
the hull.
2. Using a Phillips head screwdriver and the decket screws
provided in the hardware bag, secure the decket to the mount
base. (The decket for heavy duty spring mounts can be installed
last.)
3. Use the bow mount base as a template to mark the location of
the front mounting holes in the plastic decket and the rear
mounting holes on the mount base.
4. Drill the mounting holes with a 6.5 mm (0.25 in.) diameter drill bit.
Remove any debris.
