Description

Lee’s Tackle SW9300 Sidewinder Bolt-In Outrigger Mount, Lay-Down Version – Silver (Pair)

The Lee’s Tackle SW9300 Sidewinder Bolt-In Outrigger Mounts are high-performance, lay-down version outrigger bases designed for effortless operation from the deck. These mounts allow you to deploy or retrieve your outriggers with a simple quarter-turn of the handle, eliminating the need to climb onto gunwales or T-tops.

The SW9300 model features a bolt-in design with a small 4″ x 6″ footprint, making it an excellent choice for boats where mounting space is at a premium.¹ Constructed from heavy-duty anodized aluminum and stainless steel, these mounts are built to withstand the rigorous vibrations and salt spray of offshore fishing while maintaining a sleek silver finish.

• Easy Deployment: The lay-down feature allows for quick height adjustments, which is essential for passing under low bridges or for secure trailering.

• Rugged Construction: Made with cast stainless steel and aluminum forgings, ensuring the base won’t flex or crack under the weight of large offshore lures.

• Compact Footprint: The 4″ x 6″ mounting base is specifically designed for narrow gunwales or limited-space T-top plates.

• Universal Compatibility: Specifically designed to fit Lee’s Tackle AP3700 and MX series outrigger poles.

• Smooth Operation: Features a locking handle mechanism that provides a solid “thunk” when engaged, giving you confidence that your poles are secure in both fishing and running positions.

• Rapid Lay-Down Action: Recognized as one of the fastest lay-down systems available. It features a ridged collar mechanism—simply pull down the collar to adjust the pole angle between 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60° positions.

• Below-Top Operation: All rotation and inclination adjustments are handled from the deck. A quarter-turn of the handle rotates the base, while the locking mechanism secures the poles in both running (straight back) and trolling (80° out) positions.

• Maintenance-Free Design: Unlike older systems that use ball bearings prone to saltwater corrosion, the Sidewinder utilizes internal Delrin bushings and nylon bearing surfaces for smooth, metal-to-metal-free operation.

Technical Specifications

Installation Tips:

• These mounts are designed to accept Lee’s Tackle 16′ Extra Strong (AP3916XS) or 18.5′ (AP3918) outrigger poles. 
• For fiberglass T-tops that are not factory-reinforced for outriggers, it is highly recommended to use Lee’s SW9901 Backing Plates. These plates distribute the load across a wider surface area to prevent stress cracks during high-speed transit or heavy trolling.
