My main concern is that the quick release bracket may not contribute to as solid of a mounting condition especially on a choppy water day, ... does the bracket rattle or any other such?
Any helpful experience insights are appreciated. Thanks,
I use the MK aluminum quick disconnect mount, not the one with the starboard puck, etc. I only take the TM off when I have to put the boat in the shop. I also use a brace to support the control head when traveling.
