Mounting the GPSMAP 4000/5000 Series Chartplotter

You can mount the GPSMAP 4000/5000 series chartplotters one of two ways. You can use the included bracket to bail mount the chartplotter, or

you can use the included template and hardware to flush mount the chartplotter.

You cannot bail mount the GPSMAP 5015/5215 chartplotters. Because of the larger size, you must flush mount the GPSMAP 5015/5215 chartplotters.
