Overview

The Garmin 010-12199-03 is a tilt and swivel quick-release mount for select echoMAP chartplotters, letting you set a comfortable viewing angle and lift the display off the bracket when you are done.

It uses a quick cable disconnect at the mount, so the device can be seated and removed without unplugging wires at the back of the unit each time. Compatible with echoMAP 43dv and echoMAP 44dv.

Key features

• Tilt and swivel adjustment on the bracket so the screen can be aimed at the helm.
• Quick-release cradle for faster removal when trailering, storing, or leaving the boat.
• Quick cable disconnect built into the mount to reduce handling of connectors on the display.
• Fitment for echoMAP 43dv and echoMAP 44dv.

Installation and setup

Mount the base to a solid, flat surface where the unit can swing without hitting nearby controls or the windshield. Leave enough slack in the cable run so the bracket can tilt and rotate without pulling on the wiring.

Once the device cables are routed and secured, connect them at the mount and use the quick-release to seat or unseat the display as needed.

Compatibility and fit

This mount is for echoMAP 43dv and echoMAP 44dv. It is not a universal cradle, so confirm your exact model name before ordering.

Use on board

It is a good match for smaller consoles and open helms where you want the display positioned for glare control and then removed after a day on the water. The quick-release setup also helps when the boat is stored outdoors and you prefer to bring the electronics inside between trips.

Maintenance and care

Rinse salt spray from the bracket and release points with fresh water and keep sand and grit out of the moving joints. Periodically check mounting fasteners for tightness, especially on boats that see heavy vibration.
