I bet you have the plastic version. This metal powder coated one has to be close to 3/4 lb I bet but I could be mistaken.........It will go on the Superior expedition boat. Not going to be portaging that to much.

Quote:.I think it is close to a ton. Wow, what kind of system do you have? I have a Garmin 60C. My RAM mounting system involves a bracket that attaches to the garmin and has a ball on it, a 3" arm that attaches to balls on either side, and a ball bracket that I screwed into the thwart. Total weight for the 3 pieces is 6.5 ounces.

Earlier this winter I picked up a RAM mounting system for my GPS. While I love the durability and flexibility of the RAM systems I was less enamored with the weight.......I think it is close to a ton. When I seen that RAM has come out with a "mini" version of some of its products I directed a query to "the mount guys.com" to see if the new RAM would fit my garmin. They replied promptly and said no but directed me to a marine mount made by Garmin which is substantially lighter (probably 3/4 lighter). They also directed me to a plastic version of the RAM system which would also be lighter. I have received the Garmin marine mount and am quite happy. These fellows are to be recommended. (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)I would suggest telling them what your needs are and they will provide a link to the best product. I told them I was concerned with excess weight (they told me to go on a diet) and bingo.
