⚠️EASY! DIY - Tall Raised Fish Finder Mount for Livescope! ActiveTarget | MEGA Live | Razor Scooter
Спорт
Starting with a kids foldable razor scooter, lets work through building an awesome DIY raised fish finder mount. The mount easily lays down for towing or installation of a boat cover, which is often overlooked. This will work on a Garmin (93SV, Ultra), Lowrance or Humminbird all the same. I use it for Garmin Livescope, will work for lowrance Active Target or humminbird Mega Live as well.

Has this setup made it on your boat? Let me know what you think!

I just did this today. I like it being up high but it’s a lot to have up front. I’ll try it for a while and see. Thanks for the idea.

Has 2 old razors in the garage. Just made one of these today. Mine doesn't have the 4 holes in the base, it only had 1. I had to drill some. Mounted it today and trying to decide if I should paint it
Ordering my kids scooter right now! Thank you for sharing….

I just did this, cheers for the idea. I did weld a bigger base plate on for more stability and an adjustable rubber foot where the front wheel used to sit. Beats paying $850 (AUD) for a store bought setup

Awesome project. I just gave that scooter away to a neighbors kid. I’m going to have to buy it back from him. 😀

It's worth it! Good luck on the deal
Great idea. I’m not going to cut the wheel mounts off though. I’m going to modify them so they act as a stand when pivoted up. Should give it a little extra support.

It’s working out well! So far I don’t have a need for the other section to make it extend. 🤙
Great idea!
Thanks for the inspiration, I added another lower notch for sitting and cut the pole down bc I kept bumping it with my reels.

I discovered that if you flip the mounting bracket over and have a vertical surface to mount to the pole will sit straight vertically. Just find the right height so that when your fold it down it doesn't hit the deck before it locks in place. On my boat I had to mount it more to the right. Otherwise it hits my bow-mounted seat when the graph is installed. I'm using with a Garmin 73dv. My scooter is currently painted pink as it was my granddaughters.

Yep. I've been using one of the smaller ram mounts and the rubber on the balls are deteriorating. I'm going to make this.

How is this holding up over the past months? I watched some other videos since you put this in service to see if it gets in your way or not. What are your thoughts after some use? I think it's a brilliant reuse of a razor. Nice work!

It's been holding up great for me! The height is really nice after a long day and pivoting down to stow makes it easy to use a boat cover. Mind you I primarily fish an electric-only lake, so it's not getting beat on running on plane.

@@goodmanfishing I fish some pretty big water with a glass boat, probably a good idea to bolt through to a backing plate. I really appreciate your video. I love hot rodding items to make them cool and serviceable. Tight lines! 🎣
I like the idea of being able to turn it maybe? Just keep it snug so it won’t spin freely

This is working out great! My boat isn’t a high speed glass boat, so it doesn’t see some of the shock loading other boats will see. That said, it will be pretty durable once screwed down/anchored well. Hot rod is a 1972 Plymouth Cuda 👍

Troll much..... just because you spend money on equipment does not mean you have spend good money on over priced under engineered crap that are sub par to mount your electronics. I thought this was a great idea I plan on making one for my 126SV unit.
Nice!
