The RAP-370-BU consists of the RAM ROD® Light-Speed™ fishing rod holder, 4" long spline post and combination bulkhead/flat surface base with plunger for spline posts. Designed to mount vertically or horizontally in your boat, you can rotate the rod holder 360 degrees, while tilting the rod holder forward and back for the optimum fishing angle. The RAM ROD® Light-Speed™ is another innovative product in RAM’s long list of high quality, industry leading fishing products. Ideally suited for spinning reels and bait casting reels, the Light-Speed rod holder provides smooth action when inserting and removing the fishing rod, yet holds firm in rough water or while trolling. The spring loaded design enables rapid removal of the rod and reel when a fish is on, and offers easy placement of the rod in the rod holder. The combination bulkhead/flat surface mounting base can be installed on a flat surface such as the deck or on a vertical surface. This mounting base features a locking feature which requires the release of a plunger to remove the rod holder.
