## Description

Review: Good - Good.
Review: Great Integrated mount for an accessory track - I prefer the Ram Mount as far as versatility because the ball offers a high degree of articulation. But depending what you attaching you really can beat this. It slides right on my track right out of the package with no additional hardware required. I like that you can twist it tight onto the track with one hand and remove items with a simple turn. Only thing I don't like is that it is a little wide and high so depending on the track location and the contours of your kayak deck it can be a tight squeeze. I have an Old Town Vapor and the cockpit edge does not provide for a flat open mounting surface so you have to be careful how you mount your aftermarket rails and take into account the width of the mounts that you want to put on. In my case this worked out perfect on my left side where I have a short 8 inch track. I added an extension arm and rod holder. I had enough space to put a ram mount self leveling cup holder using the aformentioned Ram Mount. Combination looks and works great. You definitely have to plan depending on the contours and profile of your kayak deck. if you have a narrow space then you may want to consider the Ram Mount Diamond base which had a different profile and is more forgiving when deck space is at a premium.
