Nope, mine fell apart at night in 3' chop in 2014 leading to my decision to upgrade to a real plotter using RAM mounts. If I was going to use a tablet again I would look at RAM mounts. You will also want to have a charging cable connected and plan to replace that cable frequently.

Has anyone tried a cupholder mount? The cupholder on the left hand side of the help is actually a good place for it but not sure how well the cupholder mounts work.

@newbote I just ordered one off Amazon last Friday. Waiting on it to arrive so I can test it out. Will let you know how it works when I get it.

I have the long one. Don't have a good picture of it, here is one, I usually have it up right though.
It works great in smooth water, for water sports etc., very ergonomic and out of the way. Holds my ginormous iphone 6s plus where I want it. However I would not trust it in chop or any kind of weather, I think it would fall apart.

Just seeming to take forever to ship. It was in stock when I ordered it but no movement on the shipping yet.
