Final Thoughts
For anglers running multiple electronics on their boat, the Alu-Rance bracket offers a practical and durable mounting solution for Lowrance fish finders. Its vertical dual-stack design keeps two displays in a clean line of sight while freeing up valuable deck space, making it especially useful on the bow where space is limited.
Built from marine-grade aluminium and designed to withstand harsh saltwater conditions, the bracket provides a stable platform that reduces vibration and keeps your electronics secure while underway. Installation is straightforward using standard gimbal mounts, allowing anglers to easily pair different Lowrance units such as sonar, chartplotters, or forward-facing sonar displays.
Overall, the Alu-Rance bracket is a smart upgrade for anglers looking to organize their electronics setup, improve visibility, and create a cleaner, more professional fishing deck layout.
