Garmin Colorado Series Marine Mount

I use my eTrex 30 on my pontoon boat here in Florida when roaming around lake Tsala Apoka and I got tired of not having a specific place or spot for this GPS unit. I knew that I needed a holder of some type but didn't want a beanbag or windshield mount or similar bracket. While doing some research on Amazon I noticed this one but it didn't specifically mention the newest eTrex 30 and seemed to be for the Colorado series. After reviewing the Garmin website, they clearly noted that this unit would fit many of their handhelds including most eTrex units. I totally agree with Garmin as this mount is great. It's strong and the GPS is locked in place until you push a lever to unlock it. There are multiple adjustments for angle and rotation and they can be locked in place by tightening the hand screws.I mounted it to the fiberglass dash using 3M 20 lb doublesided tape and believe me, it will be on that dash forever.I like this holder. It's small, strong, adjustable and the usb port is still available once mounted. All in all, I'm pleased and figure that I got good value. It's less than $20 and works better than I expected!

Works perfectly with the GPSMAP 79SC. Couldn't find anything that said they were compatible so I took a chance.

I bought this for my Oregon 400t. I've used it on several fishing trips. The mount is small and compact. The unit connects easily and disconnects easily. It is a super mount. Holds the unit securely. I put the unit on and take it off with absolutely no issues. I'd highly recommend this mount for Garmin GPS units it is intended for. The unit clicks in securely and locks in. To remove the unit from the mount you just have to hold in the lever on the back and slide the unit up to detach. The unit attaches and detaches very easily. You can rotate it and then tighten it down. You can also adjust the pitch angle to your desired viewing angle. Great product for my Oregon 400t when I use it with lake maps in my fishing boat. Combine this mount with LakeMaster Lake Maps and the Garmin Vehicle power cable, which I plug into auxilary power plug in my boat, and they turn my Oregon 400t into a great GPS uinit for my fishing boat.

Nice range of motion to get just the right viewing position. It is easy to mount and remove the Colorado GPS which feels very secure when it is in position. I agree with others that a good piece of weather proof heavy duty double faced mounting tape would have been nice. I ended up buying a whole roll of the pricey weather proof, double faced tape just to use a couple of inches of tape. I did not want to screw this into the dash on my brand new boat.

Nice little mount, very adjustable.

I was looking for a way to mount my Oregon GPS to the dash of my truck while out Geocaching, I also wanted a permanent mount, this mount fit the bill. The mating area on the back of the mount were it connects with the GPS is somewhat tight, but I believe this is the way it was designed, being a marine mount. For my needs I wanted the GPS to be easily removed, so I took 2 small sized flat files, a course and a fine file, then removed small amounts of material from the slide area of the mount until the two mated smoothly. Now while Geocaching jumping in and out of my vehicle, i can dismount the unit with ease. Even thou the GPS now slides easy in and out it will still not fall out of the mount on its own, there is a catch at the bottom of the mount that prevents this from happening. I choose this mount because I wasn't planing to hook the unit up to a power cable, I run the GPS from the batteries in the unit. If you need power from your car battery then check out the other mounts available, or buy the auto power cable for your GPS.

This is the same mount Garmin sells in the inReach mini marine kit. Works great affixed to my dashboard with Gorilla Glue double sided tape. It keeps my Garmin inReach mini unit in view of its satellites and easily accessible from the driver's seat for SOS - and yes, I've needed it. I like that I can easily unscrew the mount from its base, and lock it and the inReach away in my glove compartment when I've returned to civilization.

Bought this mount to attach a Garmin Approach G5 to my golf cart. Great quality product, but not what I needed. It must be screwed or bolted to the cart to be used and once the G5 is mounted in it, it is very difficult to remove. Not great for golf when you sometimes need to walk to your ball and would like the GPS with you. Returned the item and have since ordered a Ram mount (not now available from Amazon) which is much more portable. It was about the same price, but I could not take advantage of Amazon's free delivery.

Mounted it externally on our sailboat, clips in and out nicely. I am not sure what kind of life it will have being exposed to UV all the time...we will see.

Es muy buena calidad, funciona muy bien para el equipo

Supporto ben fatto e stabile. Ottimo.

Great item, recommended

Achtung!! Es ist kein Saugnapf enthalten!!Rezension von "Detritus" ist falsch zugeordnet und bezieht sich auf ein anderes Produkt.Die Marinehalterung besteht aus einer zweiteiligen Halteplatte, die mit drei Schrauben (nicht enthalten) am Boot oder anderem Fahrzeug fixiert wird.Aufgrund dieser Rezension halte ich das Produkt nämlich gerade in Händen, mal sehen, ob ich es dennoch für meine Zwecke nutzen kann.Die Halterung kann entweder direkt an das Fahrzeug geschraubt werden (man lässt die Grundplatte einfach weg), dann kann man das Navi nur noch vertikal kippen, oder man schraubt die Grundplatte an und steckt dann die Halterung mit Navi dran. So ist die Halterung sowohl dreh-, als auch kippbar und macht meiner Meinung nach mehr Sinn.Der dicke Drehknopf auf dem Bild gehört zu der Grundplatte, auf die der Rest dann eingesteckt, ausgerichtet und festgedreht wird.Ansonsten die übliche, sehr wertige Garmin-Qualität, daher fünf Sterne.
