Mount Questions
One of the most important features of all Docktail® Bars is flexibility. Because every boat is different, each Docktail® Bar has several different mounting options. It can be mounted on most boats by choosing one of the mounts (we stock and sell 4 mount types) we are compatible with using the pre drilled mounting holes on each bar. This gives you the flexibility to choose the mount that works best on your boat. Selection of the appropriate mount for you depends on the boat design and which location you want to mount your bar. As always please feel free to call or emails us with any questions about mounts.

Seasucker® 4 ½” Suction Cup Mounts
2 are needed for this Application – Hardware Needed – 1 ¾ inch ¼ 20 Flathead Stainless Steel Screw per suction cup (included in online purchase)
The 4.5″ SeaSucker® vacuum cup can be installed using 1 ¾ inch ¼ 20 Flathead Stainless Steel Screw per suction cup. Although you can indeed mount the bar using 1 suction cup we recommend using 2 (4 ½”) suction cups for maximum stability. Using 1 suction cup allows the bar to rotate side to side. By using two suction mounts, you eliminate the possibility of a rotating motion. Lastly, remember the suction cups need to be suctioned to a smooth surface to work properly, for example, no non-skid.
