Hi All,

Found a pair. Thanks everyone!

Original Post;
I got two Penn Fathom master 600 downriggers but they did not come with the mounting bases. The guy I got them from assured me that I could get these anywhere. Well, guess what? They are no longer available and discontinued everywhere. Saw one on ebay from a seller in Canukistan for 20.00 PLUS 25.00 shipping. Does anyone have any lying around that I could purchase or know where I could get one or a pair? Thanks!

For $45.00 for the mounts is not a bad price as long as they are swivel mounts. Swivel mounts are the way to go. I bought 2 Scotty mounts at like 50.00 each.

They were for the fixed base mounts. Price includes one.

Yup, it is the manual one. They have a red handle, gold booms, yellow knobs...What would you like for it Norm? I found one mount at my buddies house so just need one more. Thanks!
