Poling Platform Holder

V Marine Poling Platform Holder:

The redesigned poling platform holder, launching July 2024, combines the classic look of the first generation with improved durability for long-lasting performance.

Available in polished or black anodized finishes, it offers three versatile mounting options: permanent, quick detach, and locking base plate for added security while running your skiff.

Permanent Mount set-up bolt size

The bolt size needed to permanently mount the poling platform holder is 3/8″ – 16 thread. Most poling platforms require between 1 to 1 1/2 inch long bolt. The length of the bolt can vary depending on poling platform thickness and washer thickness.

Warnings

Do not try to remove the bolt from the bottom of the poling platform holder if it is set-up to use the quick detach base plate (you will damage the bolt and holder beyond repair)

Because poling platforms can vibrate/shake while running your boat be aware that the top of the poling platform holder can rattle lose or even come off of the quick detach base plate if not secured tightly.

The quick detach base plate is made of aluminum and the bolt is stainless steel because if the different metals the bolt will require cleaning and anti-corrosion spray or grease to keep the holder functioning properly.
