We placed our TV on top of the main cabin locker, adjacent to the nav station. Has anyone developed a mount to hold it steady while sailing? Right now, we wedge it in with pillows, obviously not a great solution. Thanks

3M hold downs
Stuart: I have a 9" TV that we have mounted on top of a cabinet also. We used the 3M product that has stick-on fasteners with buckles. You stick the buckle to the TV and another to the cabinet. Then you use this plastic belting material to connect the two buckles. I must tell you that I was VERY scepitical of this method of mounting but it has worked VERY WELL. We have over 25+ degrees and the TV stays in place better than the crew. These can also be used to hold a laptop computer down on the chart table too.

Could you give me the info. on the 3M Product?
Was searching the West Marine internet site and couldn't find something similar. Do you have any more specifics so I can find either there or at their store? Thanks a bunch, Stuart

Come on Stuart.....
Stuart: We told you about the product and now you want us to find it for you too <haha>. Seriously, it is in the WM 2000 Sailing catalog on pg. 377 (upper left hand corner) The part number is 133683 or 193164 (white) and 113691 or 193156 (black). They run between 9.00 & 12.00. Good luck, let us know what you think about them.
