Quick take

A portable downrigger bracket that mounts to boat rail stanchions without drilling, providing extra stability.

The Scotty 2027 clamps a downrigger onto a boat's railing stanchion, so there is no drilling into the hull or deck. Stainless steel knobs make it simple to move or take off, and it fits stanchion tubes angled from 50 to 90 degrees. The top plate also accepts Scotty's 1026 Swivel and 1010 Compact mounts, which suits trollers who want to run gear on a rail-equipped boat.
