Overview

The Garmin 010-12842-00 is a bail mount with a quick-release cradle for ECHOMAP Ultra 12 inch chartplotter and sounder combos.

It bolts to a flat surface and uses side knobs to set your viewing angle, then hold it in place when the boat is taking hits in rough water. The cradle is the connection point for the display cables, so you can lift the unit off the bracket for storage or trailering without having to unplug everything at the helm.

Key features

• Compatible fit for ECHOMAP Ultra 12 inch displays, including ECHOMAP Ultra 122sv and 126sv.
• Bail style surface mount with tilt adjustment controlled by side knobs.
• Quick-release cradle keeps the cable connections on the mount so the display can be seated and removed quickly.
• Practical for open consoles and fishing boats where electronics are regularly removed between trips.

What’s included

• Bail mount with quick-release cradle and mounting knobs.

Compatibility and fit

This mount is made for the 12 inch ECHOMAP Ultra housing. If your unit is a different size or a different family, the bracket and cradle shape may not match.

Plan the mounting location with room to tilt the screen and with clearance behind the cradle for cable bend radius, especially if the unit sits close to a windshield frame or an electronics box wall.

Installation and setup

Fasten the base to a solid, flat surface and use a backing plate or fender washers when mounting to thin fiberglass. Seal any deck or console penetrations to keep water out of the laminate core.

Once the cradle is secured, plug the display cables into the back of the cradle, seat the chartplotter into the bracket, and set the viewing angle with the side knobs.

Use and care

Rinse salt spray off the bracket during washdowns and check the mounting screws and knobs periodically, especially after long runs or trailering. If you remove the display often, keep the cradle area clean so the unit seats fully each time.
