A Planer Rigger Mounted On The
Bow Of A Tiller Steered Boat...
The bow deck of a tiller
boat is the ideal location for
mounting a planer mast. When
installing a planer rigger system,
remember two important facts.
First, the taller your mast is, the
greater the distance your planers
will travel from the sides of your boat.
And second, the farther forward you
mount the mast, the less distance your
planers will travel behind your transom.
Both points effect handling and control.
Mounting A Planer Rigger
In A Pedestal Seat Base...
Many fishermen choose to adapt their
planer mast so that it will fit into the
base of the pedestal seat at the bow
of their boat.

Planer Riggers For Boats
With Console Steering...
For larger boats, where the bow is not
easily accessible, a pair of single reel
planer masts mounted just behind the
cabin or canopy is a popular solution.
The mast and tow lines are easy for all
members of the fishing party to reach. You
can also update your mast on the bow with
a pair of electric reels, which are
remotely controlled from
the steering console.

greater distance from your boat than the old
fashion boards or skis. It handles rough water
well and won’t stall in turns.
