VAZESWIN Aluminum Alloy Fish Finder Mount with C Size 1.5" Ball Rectangular Plate & Round Base, 9.1" Long Arm
Quick take
The VAZESWIN aluminum fish finder mount is designed to help you position a compatible fish finder or chartplotter using a C-size 1.5" ball and a 9.1" double-socket arm with 360° adjustability. It is best for boat and kayak owners mounting larger Garmin and Lowrance units where you want a flexible viewing angle. The main caveat is compatibility: some Humminbird and Raymarine models are only partially supported, so you will want to confirm your exact device before drilling.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Aluminum construction (6061-T6) with a hard anodized surface for marine use
- C-size 1.5" ball system with a long 9.1" arm and 360° rotation for viewing flexibility
- Drill-down base with pre-drilled hole patterns (including an AMPS pattern) for simpler installation
- Broad Garmin and Lowrance compatibility coverage (varies by model)
Cons
- Compatibility is not universal for every Humminbird and Raymarine model
- Installation requires drilling (less convenient than clamp-style mounts)
- Designed to hold devices within a stated size range, so very small or odd layouts may not match the plate/holes
What buyers think
Buyer-review evidence for this mount is strongly positive, but the sample mainly highlights install experience and day-to-day sturdiness rather than fine-grain performance metrics. The most consistent themes are that it feels well made, is easy to adjust once installed, and works well for popular units in the Garmin lineup. Several buyers also mention durability in active use, including stable positioning when the boat is moving.
Design and build: what you are actually buying
This mount uses a marine electronic “ball and socket” approach built around a C-size 1.5" ball. The system includes a round base with pre-drilled mounting holes, a rectangular mounting plate intended for device attachment, and a long double-socket arm that extends the screen out for more comfortable viewing.
- Base and arm: The round base is 2.4" diameter and the arm length is 9.1" (23 cm), using a C-size 1.5" ball and a double-socket design.
- Adjustability: The arm provides 360° adjustable rotation, which is helpful when you want the display angled toward you while trolling, drifting, or idling.
- Mounting plate: The fish finder plate includes a C-size 1.5" ball and comes with multiple pre-drilled holes to help match different marine electronics.
- Materials: The round base and rectangular plate are 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, CNC machined, and hard anodized, while the arm is powder-coated 6061-T6 aluminum.
Compatibility: make sure your exact unit is supported
This mount is focused on fitting common Garmin and Lowrance fish finders and chartplotters, with limited or partial support for some other brands. The fit is heavily model-dependent, so take a minute to verify your exact device name and series before committing to a drill-down installation.
- Garmin compatibility: It lists support for many Garmin units across GPSMAP, Striker, Echomap Plus, Echomap UHD, and Echomap Ultra series (including a number of popular 72cv through Ultra 106SV models).
- Lowrance compatibility: It lists support for models such as Eagle, Elite FS, HDS Carbon, HDS LIVE, HDS PRO, Hook Reveal, Hook, Hook2 series, and related fish finder/chartplotter lines.
- Humminbird and Raymarine: Compatibility is described as partial for some fish finders and chartplotters, with specific exceptions noted for certain Humminbird Helix and Solix 10 models.
Practical tip: Because the installation is drill-down and the plate uses a specific set of pre-drilled holes, it is worth dry-fitting the mounting plate orientation and hole alignment before you commit to final tightening.
Installation and everyday use
This is a drill-down mount, so setup is best planned around where you want the electronics permanently installed. Once mounted, the ball-and-socket mechanism is intended to make it easier to position the display without forcing awkward camera-like angles.
- Where it works: It is marketed for boats, kayaks, and flat-surface installations.
- Adjustment while underway: The 360° rotation design can make it easier to angle your view during different movement patterns.
- Device hold: The mount is intended to secure compatible electronics in a stated size range (7"/9"/10"/12" class devices), so confirm your screen size and mounting footprint.
Pros and cons in plain terms
- Choose it if: You want a sturdy, aluminum ball-and-socket marine mount, you have a supported Garmin or Lowrance model, and you prefer a permanent drill-down setup for stability.
- Consider a different option if: Your fish finder/chartplotter is one of the excluded or partially compatible Humminbird or Raymarine models, or you want a no-drill or clamp-style solution.
- Biggest buying risk: Getting the mount before confirming that your exact unit matches the listed compatibility and mounting-hole pattern.
Price and availability
It is currently listed at a mid-range price point for marine electronics mounts. If you are comparing options, focus less on the lowest price and more on compatibility accuracy (especially hole patterns and screen size range), since a perfect fit matters more than minor differences in arm length.
Verdict
The VAZESWIN C-size 1.5" aluminum fish finder mount is a strong pick for anglers who want a permanent, stable install and flexible screen positioning, especially with many Garmin and Lowrance chartplotters and depth finders in the listed families. Just be careful with device-model compatibility for Humminbird and Raymarine, since that is the main place where shoppers can run into fit issues when they assume the mount is universally interchangeable.
