Detailed Description

Adjustable Swivel Base featuring a special bearing system that lets you swivel the base easily, with one hand, while mounted with the heaviest down rigger. Polymer bearings are used, top and bottom, so there is no metal to metal contact. Metal plates are used to back the bearings for strength.

Another winning feature is the use of a unique positive gear lock system that locks the swivel at 30 - 12 positions without wobble or play. It fits in any of Bert's track and utilizes two tension knobs to lock in into place. Bert's track has grooves that prevent movement after the swivel base is locked down and the adjustment lever is easily operated.

The 12 position adjustment feature and the easy base rotation are handy when you have multiple lines in the water or you've got a strike and need to reposition the down rigger as the fish moves.

The positive gear lock system is unique in that the swivel base swings free when you pull the lever and remains free until you release it. When released, the pin locks in the center of a tapered gear tooth that is machined into the swivel base. The gear tooth form has tapered walls so that the pin locks on the sidewalls of the gear and doesn't bottom out. This means that the swivel base locks in the center of the gear tooth without play or wobble.
