    Z21 XL Question

    For those Z21 XL owners that run two graphs on the bow, what mount did you use. I’m running a single HDS 12 but wanting to add either another 12 or a 9 for chart only.

    I like an over the pedal mount that mounts to the deck of the boat. I just don’t like the idea of multiple graphs secured at the bow.

    I am running 2 bridges (1 flat, 1 angled) for my 2 12" HDS Lives, with gimbals from BBT. Originally I had planned to replace this later but have been running it for a year plus. No issues and was about $160 for the bridges plus the BBT gimbals (which are not cheap but infinitely stronger than stock LIVE gimbals).

    Good luck.

    One note I will say you need to pad the gimbals or modify your cover to fit and not rub holes in the cover.

    Have a 2021 z21. I have a dual stack mount from Bass Boat Technologies. Solid as a rock.

    Is an offset to the right needed to mount the dual 12’s? Worried about clearance with the trolling motor.

    Mine is offset, but I moved the whole bracket so they vertically align.

    With a ghost you will need to offset some.
