Installing the Base on Your Boat
Decks up to 7/16" thick
Where access to the underside of the deck is not
available, the mounting base can be mounted using
wellnuts. Use the base as a template to mark locations
and drill four wellnut clearance holes. Mount the base
using four 1/4-20 x 1-1/2" truss head screws and four
wellnuts. Tighten the screws so the wellnuts are firmly
compressed as pictured.
Decks thicker than 7/16"
For decks thicker than 7/16", or where the
underside of the deck is accessible, mount the base
with screws, nuts, and washers. Use the base as a
template to mark the locations and drill four 9/32" holes.
Use four 1/4-20 x 2" truss head screws and four each
flat washers and nuts. Fasten the base to the deck as
pictured. NOTE: Wellnuts
SHOULD NOT be used on
decks thicker than 7/16".

Downrigger Mounting on Boats
A downrigger should be mounted wherever it is
easy to operate and observe. You want to be able to
see your fishing rod and to react quickly. So,
choosing a good location to mount your downrigger
on your boat is very important.
Due to the great variety of boats available,
mounting your downrigger can be a difficult decision.
Cannon has a complete line of mounting and fishing
accessories to aid in your fishing experience. Before
making any permanent changes to your boat consider
what accessories might be used in your application.
