Gear: Side Mirror – An Idea to Reflect On

Seasucker Side Mirror

Apr 12, 2023

Most boats don’t come equipped with a mirror. With the new Side Mirror Mount from SeaSucker, virtually any boat can have this important piece of safety gear without permanent installation. It’s perfect for helmsmen keeping an eye on skiers, tubers and wake surfers—and the occasional rowdy party guests.

Made in the USA, the Side Mirror Mount uses SeaSucker’s innovative Vacuum Mount technology. Unlike an industrial suction cup that loses holding power soon after it’s applied, the 4.5″ mount holds up to 120 lbs. when installed on a clean, non-porous surface such as glass, acrylic or fiberglass—often for days.

The Side Mirror Mount is engineered to withstand constant jarring from running in chop without affecting the set angle of the 7.5″ L x 5.75″ W mirror. The device can be installed wherever it provides the clearest view for the helmsman, at nearly any mounting angle—something permanent solutions cannot do. And when it’s no longer needed, it removes without leaving a trace.

The SeaSucker Side Mirror Mount is made of rugged UV-stabilized materials with stainless steel hardware. It costs $75 or $135 for two.

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
