HOW DOES IT WORK FOR A BOAT?

I haven't tried to attach it to a boat, but I have attached it to the side of a fiberglass bathtub. It is important to stick it to a clean smooth surface. It will not hold otherwise

I cannot answer specifically for a boat because my application is in a tandem cockpit aircraft. I will, however, offer an opinion. Assuming you have an adequate flat, sturdy surface upon which to mount the device I believe you would be satisfied. Pay attention to its dimensions if you want to mount it close enough to read print.

Don....I´m a pilot and fly for a major airline in Argentina. RAM works perfectly with my Ipad being adhered to the side window of the cockpit. In fact, I always use it. The only precaution to take is to clean the glass where it will adhere RAM and moisten the rubber in order to avoid separation. I think that it will work perfect in your boat!!

Also, I would recommend all ram products, but if you are using on a boat, airplane, ect., you probably have the ipad in a case, so I'd recommend the spring loaded style cradle rather than this " no case" one. Still stick with ram brand.

I suspect it would work fine as long as you have a flat surface you could adhere it to. We did purchase an adhesive disk from RAM that was designed for this purpose. It came with a very strong adhesive, however it is removable (with some heat applied from what I understand). All we did was clean the surface (RV dash) it was to be mounted on, remove the protective shield from the adhesive disk and mount it on the dash. Then the RAM mount will adhere to the disk and it works great. We called the RAM company to determine exactly which disk to purchase to go with our mount. Hope that helps.

I used it an airplane. It has a very very strong suction cup. I would say it will work great on any smooth surface.

It is a fast little boat, but remember it is small. Mine is also very water tight. But, the water must be smooth...or you run the risk of flipping it over.

Yes, it works on salt water. It is easier to maneuver with 2 people in the boat because it's heavier, and you have to make sure it's fully inflated.

Hi Cheryl,The main question is whether this electric motor will be powerful enough to push an inflatable boat. If you have an inflatable dingy, like a Zodiac, then I'd be skeptical. It works fine for my canoe, but anything larger, you'll need a bigger motor. You can put the battery in a battery case to keep it dry. The cables from the motor are fairly long, but you'll have to measure your own boat to make sure.R

Sorry, never used on water boating. However, I do not see why it would not work.

Drill a hole a little larger than the wire. make sure you use a good sealant on the wire. If your boat has two batterys hook it up to the deep cycle

I use mine on a cabin cruiser boat. It will maintain the starting batteries and radio but not the bigger electric draws like the fridge, air or even the fans.

It is light and works well on my boat. Not sure what your boat or plan of use might be, but it works well on the Hudson River.

The blower has a 12V DC motor for connection to the boat's power system. It is designed for use on a boat not to be plugged in to an AC circuit. An adapter of sufficient amperage would be required to connect it to an AC source.

It works fine with fuel for two stroke engines. I installed one on my boat with a two stroke merc outboard, and it works great!

No it just plugs in. It is a snug fit. I use it for my boat. It should work for you.

I use it on a boat too. Don't think I would consider it "water proof", but it gets splashed on once in a while.

you conncct it to a 12v power source and connect the transducer to your trolling motor or epoxy it to the inside bottom of your boat. actually, i returned my unit since the built in maps didn't cover the water i fish.

It works very well I use it on my boat battery. I have had mine almost a year now with no problems.

Yes if you have the attachment if your boat is inflatable or if your boat is metal there is no problem.

You will need a pump. This has a separate air bladder and shell. The bladder requires some pressure to make the boat still, and you cannot blow enough pressure with your lungs to do a good job. I bought a different brand of pump because it was cheaper. It works well, but the fit on the valves is a little tight, so I recommend you purchase the Advanced elements brand pump. Read the instructions before unpacking. Follow the instructions. With the presure right, the inside acts as a backrest, and the paddling effort is ok. If it is too soft, no back support, and paddleing is rather slow. Follow the instructions, and it is a nice compromise of cost, convenient storage, and efficiency. You will need a pump.

It plugs into your current alternating system on your boat. When you connect the antenna to your radio the current that feeds the radio also feeds the antenna.
