Mounting Galaxy Tablet

[Liquid Limo]

Hi All
I have a Galaxy Tab A, 8" Tablet, that I have some racing apps on, I'd like to easily mount and dismount it on rear of the cabin wall in the cockpit, so I can easily see it from the skippers position, to see the likes of the Start Countdown etc...

Anyone done this? Can you show how or what you used please.

I used one of these at the chart table.

Should work in the cockpit provided you keep the boat upright and don't want to lead any wires to the tablet.

PS: you could probably add velcro straps to keep the tablet in the holder in the event of a bad Chinese gybe putting the mast in the water.

look at ebay and search for 'tablet holder' or similar - lots of different types from suction mounted to screw mounted
e.g. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360-degre...765059?hash=item23679665c3:g:hx8AAOSwd3dXF7eT.

I've got a multi adjustable one thats mounted using a screw clamp system. The screw clamp holds it very well but its folding arms arent that easy to adjust and operate to get to the 'right length and position' and then fold away afterwards.

May be the flexible arm (above) is better.....?

However, lpdsn's system is a bit more woody and 'boaty'......!
