Gator Flex 360 Mount

 

 

 

The Gator Flex 360 and Gator Flex 360SW feature the patent-pending 360° breakaway isolator with the capability to automatically reset the shafts position after impact, protecting your motor from collisions with underwater obstacles.  It also cancels vibration in the stow position to prevent damage during rough-water runs.  The innovative Gator Flex Isolator acts as a soft-start shock absorber for quiet motor start-ups that allow you to get closer to the fish.  Built with oversized 3/8"stainless steel pins Gator Flex Mounts are design to work with motors with up to 71 lbs of thrust.

 

 

Continuing that tradition, the Gator Flex Mount uses proprietary XK360 Die-cast aluminum, its strength-to-weight ratio optimizes boat performance and its unique rubber isolator protects the motor in shallow water and heavy cover applications.

Applications

Gator Flex 360 Mounts come with all the stainless steel bolts, fender washers, nylon locking nuts and rubber spacers you'll need to rig your new motor and mount to the boat.  The 1/4" stainless steel bolts, nuts and fender washers will make sure the mount stays solid on the boat, while the rubber washers will allow you to make sure you have a level mounting surface which is important for long lasting performance.

One-hand Stow and Deploy are based on a level surface that allows the stainless steel pins to properly lock in both the run and stow positions.  With a quick snap of the wrist you will have no problem putting this mount to work and the locking pins will insure your motor stay put while running down the lake.

Added Rough Water Protection is available with a MotorGuide Tie-down strap that fits nicely under the mount prior to mounting and can snug the shaft down for big water applications.

A Gator Flex Bounce Bumper can also be added to the mount arm in installations where the bow arm lays close to the boat gunnels for added protection.  As a second purpose the Bounce Bumper has holes on the under side to hold transducers cables eliminating the need for wire ties to clean-up the installation.  A close up photo of this accessory can be seen in the mount accessory section of the web site.

The Gator Flex 360 is an excellent lightweight mount for 12-volt and small 24-volt motor applications, and shafts lengths 50 inches and down.  The proprietary Mercury Marine-Grade XK360 Die-Cast Aluminum offers an unmatched strength to weight ratio at an outstanding value.  For tournament grade performance on big water, MotorGuide offers the Gator Breakaway 20.8, Gator 21R SW and Gator Spring Mounts used by professional fisherman in every competitive arena.

 

Since 1961, when G.H. Harris and MotorGuide invented the first bow mount trolling motor to the introduction of the legendary Gator Mount, MotorGuide has been the leader in mount technology.
