## Description

The Scotty #1026 Swivel Pedestal Mount is a rotating base mount designed to give you full control over the positioning of your downrigger equipment on your boat.

Review: Had to pick up a 2nd one of these after using one for a while. Great addition to my trolling system. - I run two manual (#1085) downriggers on my aluminum boat that has welded downrigger mount brackets attached to the gunwale rails. One of the used 1085s came with a #1026 swivel pedestal. I found it a challenge to mount the original tilt-up mount bracket (#1023, which come with 1085s) on my boat's welded bracket. If I centered the mounting bolts on the 1023, my DR would butt up against the mounting plate and wouldn't raise fully to lock in the upward position. If I set it inward so the unit could tilt fully, the nuts/washers would conflict with the rails under the edge of the mounting bracket. In fact I had to run it with 3 bolts for a few weeks. Since the other unit with the #1026 worked fine, I picked up a 2nd for the other side. Now both downriggers work perfectly. There are a few negative reviews on desertcart. They seem to focus on slop in the 1026 and also with the swivels being too wide for their gunwales. There IS a little slop/play in these but I don't notice it once the unit is mounted with a downrigger and in use. Second, too wide for your gunwales? Sorry guys, do your homework. A quick Google search easily reveals the base and bolting dimensions. These seem bomber. They do what they're supposed to and fully solved my problems. Swiveling my downriggers to align with the gunwale while traveling seems more secure than traveling with them straight up. Lastly, one of the big benefits I don't see people mentioning: when the DRs are removed, you'll find that the included mounting plate (also available separately #1036) leave a nice, clean mounting platform on your boat. This is really nice for those days you don't need downriggers, or during storage (they're pretty cheap and I can't imagine them being a target for thieves).
Review: Works great, Scotty 1060 mounted on swivel bases - Fits my smaller Scotty 1060 Downriggers. Pretty much universal mounting on my boat, secured the base plate then everything else was easy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How tall is this unit?**
A: Unit shown is 4 1/8” tall

**Q: will this work with the 1021 portable bracket for the 1050 1060 down rigger**
A: No, but you can make it work. I drilled holes in a downrigger base plate (Scotty #1036) for the machine screws and square nuts and mounted it to the 1021 bracket. Then you can attach any Scotty downrigger base to the downrigger base plate. Be sure to check the screws from the base plate to the 1021 bracket as they can wiggle loose and are hidden by what's mounted above. 

Also, there will be a lot of torque on the gunwale, so I would advise using a piece of wood as a spacer between the hull and the 1021 bracket.

**Q: The item description says "fits all scotty downriggers," but how do you mount scotty 1060 depthking on this? their bolting dementions don't match.**
A: Send a text to Lori Green Scotty Rep
425-466-4685
She is in Seattle

**Q: Will this work the 1050**
A: Yes, I have two 1050's and they work great with the 1026 mount.
