Ghost support post pad for carpet

[DavidAnderson]

Was in Cabela's yesterday and saw a boat with a Ghost mounted to the bow and it had a pad that was attached to the carpet to provide a fit under the support post. Asked the guy about it and he didn't have a clue. Seems like a good thing to have as mine sits right on the carpet. Does anyone know if this is a Lowrance part number, I have search and found some stating they are for the Minnkota's. It looks the same but no site had the dimensions with it. Does anyone here know what I am talking about? Thanks

Ashmore marine products.

Thank you, just ordered one. The video shows the style they had, a smaller diameter but this one looks better,

Bob’s machine shop has them also also

I'd say the heck with that little rubber disk.
Use a troll tamer which will eliminate any bounce in the trolling motor.

A troll tamer is not really compatible with a ghost. T-H Marine also makes a bounce buster that will work with a ghost. I second the Bobs machine, its the one I have.

Your right but wrong.
The Troll Tamer is sold through TH Marine.
I, as well as many of us used the rod from the Ghost to tap it out to 3/8 inch and thread the troll tamer into it.
The rod is already drilled out to 5/16 inch for the perfect size for the tap.
Zero movement when you're bouncing when running.

I retired from the wrong business if there is someone out there willing to pay $30 for a piece of plastic.

Says it’s machined from aluminum not plastic

Just for the record a troll tamer is 100% compatable with the ghost. I have one on my boat.

And as AJ14 said above easiest way is to attach it to the rod, but it must be square or will not hold properly.

I made one out of starboard that I had left over. Cut out a circular piece and then drimelled out the center a little deeper where the rod would hit. Drilled a hole in the center a bit recessed and put a screw into the deck of the boat. Nothing fancy but it works well.
