    There are a couple ways to do this. One way might work better for you. On my 2050 I took off the back cleats. I installed the 6″ berts or traxstech mounting plate. The bolt holes will match perfect with two on the track system. You have to drill two new holes and the other two holes will be covered by the track. then slide in a downrigger swivel base and mount the rigger on top of that. When your not using the riggers slide them out and slide in a rod holder or they make rear cleats you can slide in also. This gives a very clean mount and apperance. You have to shim the track slightly depending how much curve there is when you remove the old cleat. I used a piece of black poly cutting board as the shim and cut it with my miter saw to the correct angle. It’s nice to keep the back of the boat open so you can net those big salmon standing on the rear deck or transom. Hope this helps.
