I bit the bullet and bought the RAM mount. It wasn’t that bad, though. I bought a 1” handlebar mount + a double socket arm ($27 for the set) + round plate with ball ($15). The prices are current; I think I paid a bit less. So for $45 you have a very solid mount that attaches to the binnacle guard, swings away when needed, can be adjusted to see it from behind or in front of the wheel, and can be easily removed. The alternative was to install a Navpod for about 10x the cost. I am quite happy with what I got.

Didn't know if any of you might have some suggestions for a good swing arm mount for my GPS chart plotter? I'm considering the RAM Mounts but boy are they expensive! Are there any other models out there that might be a bit more reasonable in price? The Rams do look quite sturdy and mounting them looks quite straight forward. Chris
