For the first summer with my 07 Marlin we wernt quite sure where the downriggers would be ideally mounted, so I bought the Scotty Gimbal mounts for the downrigger bases, and experimented with the 4 different spots. Not recommended, but was a good experiment.
Now that the riggers are mounted, I took the scotty Gimbal mounts and put bamboo cutting boards on them. One a small bait station, and the other fits the Barbecue perfectly.
The barbecue has 1/4" screw holes for a mount sold seperately, so I drilled holes in the board to secure the Q to the mount, no slidey off into the water.
The small stows in the live well, and the big stows under the copilot gunwale.
I just did this since I had the gimbal mounts laying around. If your BBQ comes with a gimbal attachment by all means use it. Just thought I'd share!
Summer almost here!
