RAILBLAZASidePort Tracloader 90 Degree Gunnel Track Mount for Boats, Compatible with Tracker, Crestliner, Lund, Lowe and More

Works for what I needed..

There are two sets of different mounting bolts. Both work on my Tracker boat. Zoom in on the photo to see the cutout on the track for the larger bolt to slip in.

I like the mounting attachments. This unit fits the Lund sport track rail very nicely. Solid retention of the rod holders.

Overall I like the product. It fit into the Versatrack system on my Grizzly Tracker just fine. I also bought the extender and “u” bracket mount (for a Humminbird depth finder) with the Tracloader.Now the ‘could be better’. The instructions on how to manipulate the locking system on the Tracloader and the extender are poor but relatively easy to figure out. I mounted my Helix 7 and found the whole system to be wobbly. The weight of the Helix 7 head seems to be a little much for the system. You can’t seem to get the mounting screws in the Tracloader tight enough to fully support the Helix 7 in the Tracker Versatrack groove. The jury is still out on how this will work on choppy or rough water. Haven’t tried it yet, have my doubts. Might have to take the extender out to reduce the leverage against the Tracloader/Versatrack connection.Edit. After a run on the lake I’ve taken the extender out, too much flex/vibration/movement being transmitted to the Helix 7 head. The reason I bought the extender was to get the unit further inside the boat away from the gunnel and potential branches/snags, etc. I’ve also found most of the play (flex) in the system is the joints in the Railblaza system itself. Gonna try it like this.

Works as expected

Use this on my Tracker Pro 170 to hold my Go Pro. Great fit. Never an issue. Easy to get poll in and out and doesn't come loose while driving.

I bought 4 of these Railblaza SidePort TracLoader 90 Degree Boat Gunnel Track Mounts and really use them. As you can see they are not cheap. They were easy to install and its nice to be able to move them when I want. They do what I need but I'm not entirely pleased about the fitment. There's some "wiggle" no matter how much I tighten them to the side mount rails on my Tracker Targa boat. No matter how tight I adjust them to the side mount rails there is still a little movement between the boat rail and the mount. It's not a lot of movement but when paired with the movement between the side mount and the rod holder (where the star gears connect and after locking the rod holder into the mount base), allows some play to the whole thing. I appreciate that it's not enough movement to be a big functional problem but for the money I expected to have a pretty solid rod holders. I even removed the rubber washers that go between the boat rail and the SidePort mount which helped reduce some of the movement but not enouth to be pleasing to me. I should add that these work as designed and it could be that other fisherman would not care about this. Also, on a different boat the fitment may be better.

Great customer service. My order was missing parts, contacted manufacturer and they sent them as fast as possible. Great product.
