Description

ITEM # FFS- BEAST

Our FFS BEAST’S sleek design is built of high-quality aluminum alloy & black cerakoted to provide a robust shield against the elements. The FFS BEAST  is configured of two rotating brackets held together with a 3/8 bolt. The precise “interlocking teeth” design allows you to rotate your Forward-Facing Sonar in 10-degree increments to your desired sweet spot and then tighten the knob to lock the BEAST in place.  Our Spring Back Bracket®is attached to the FFS BEAST to safeguard the transducer from submerged objects by pivoting up and automatically returning to normal position once force is released, which helps protect the transducer from underwater obstruction.

Note: to install the FFS-Beast on the transom, there must be approximately 12″ clearance from the Jack Plate in order to rotate the transducer – for example Skeeter ZX or Ranger 500 series are not a good candidate.

Discover the ultimate art of fishing with the FFS Beast as you track fish behaviors, their real-time movements & identify their environment with ease.

The FFS BEAST gives you the ability to optimize your chances of a successful fishing day by rotating the BEAST anywhere between -90 to +90 degrees. Plus having the option to change the angle orientation by pivoting the Forward-Facing factory bracket.

Find your “sweet spot” by aiming the FFS BEAST towards your desired direction to maximize the sonar’s capabilities’. For instance:  Sit back as you idle around with your FFS BEAST set at 40 degrees targeting a fishing area to eliminate or discover efficiently.  This will give you “live” views of the same areas you would normally only see in “still mode” with the traditional side scan transducer.”

Our FFS BEAST gives the co-angler an advantage of the forward-facing sonar while fishing at the rear of the boat using the unit on the console.

The FFS BEAST is pre-assembled with the following components:
* Backing Plate is ¼” thick high-quality aluminum alloy and black powder coated.  It has six pre-drilled holes to simplify installation of the FFS BEAST to the transom wall of your boat.
* Wedge is black polyethylene and designed to put the transducer at the correct angle when the boat is in the water.
* Stainless Steel Spring Back Bracket® (Pat. 9,361,873) with two double torsion springs.  It will safeguard the transducer from submerged objects by pivoting up and automatically returning to normal position once force is released, which helps protect the transducer from underwater obstruction.
* Axle Assembling Tool which is threaded on one end and used to remove and reassemble the axle and spring, if necessary.
* Stainless Steel two prong Fork which is used to keep the SBB-5 top and bottom bracket together when disassembling and reassembling the axle and springs, if it becomes necessary to take the assembly apart.
