Rigging a fishing boat efficiently often comes down to one key factor: maximizing usable space without drilling unnecessary holes. Traxstech’s 30° Gimbal Mount (GM‑100 / GM‑180) provides a smart, drill‑free solution for anglers who want to mount rod holders, electronics, or accessories using their boat’s existing gimbal sockets.

Designed for strength, stability, and versatility, this mount is a favorite among anglers who want a clean, professional setup that protects their boat while expanding their rigging options.

A Drill‑Free Mounting Solution

Many boats come equipped with factory gimbal rod holders. The GM‑100 and GM‑180 transform those holders into secure mounting points for Traxstech accessories. Instead of drilling into fiberglass or aluminum, anglers can slide the gimbal mount into the existing socket and instantly gain a solid platform for rod holders, downrigger bases, electronics mounts, and more.

This makes the gimbal mount ideal for:

• Charter captains rigging multiple boats

• Anglers who want removable setups

• Boats where drilling is not preferred or allowed

• Seasonal or temporary rigging configurations

Key Features & Benefits
