TACO Grand Slam 170 Outrigger Top Mounts - 1-1/8" (Pair)

The TACO Grand Slam 170 Outrigger Top Mounts in 1-1/8" diameter (sold as a pair) are purpose-built rigging hardware designed to transform small to mid-sized boats into effective offshore fishing platforms. Manufactured by TACO Marine, a respected name in marine equipment, these mounts attach to the hardtop or cabin crown to support Tele-Outrigger poles, extending your fishing spread and allowing multiple lines to fish at optimal distances from the boat's wake.

Compatibility with 1-1/8" Tele-Outrigger poles is critical for proper fit and safety. The Grand Slam 170 design accommodates this standard pole diameter while providing the structural rigidity needed to handle the mechanical stress of rigged lines and live baits in offshore conditions. Installation is straightforward on boats up to 24 feet, with mounting hardware engineered for stainless-steel construction to resist saltwater corrosion. The pair configuration means you can deploy a balanced rigging spread—typically one outrigger on each side of the boat—adding up to 30 feet of total fishing spread and reducing line tangles during multiple hook-ups.

These mounts are intended for weekend tournament anglers and serious offshore fishermen pursuing pelagic species where lure or live bait presentation at distance from the boat is critical. The Grand Slam 170 represents a balanced choice for boat owners seeking simple, reliable rigging hardware without the complexity or cost of larger systems designed for boats exceeding 30 feet. Proper mounting location and secure fastening to a solid structural point on your hardtop are essential for safe and effective operation in a working fishing environment.
