Reelax Outrigger Base Reef 550 SS Black 316 Stainless Kilwell Sports For Saltwater Game Fishing Pro Anglers

Reelax Outrigger Base Reef 550 SS Black (Pr) is engineered for anglers who demand durability, reliability and reach from their game-fishing setup. Crafted in marine-grade 316 stainless steel and finished with a satin black powder coating, this base is built to withstand the harsh saltwater environment while looking sharp on any boat.

Designed to perfectly accompany Reelax’s Reef 550 Black Edition outriggers, it features a longer rigger tube that pairs seamlessly with the 5.5m outrigger poles (40mm ID). This means an optimized spread and cleaner line management, helping you maximize trolling angles and bite opportunities on big-game days. Power-coated satin black finish and robust stainless construction ensure long-term performance under offshore conditions.

The Reef 550 base footprint is thoughtfully sized for easy upgrades. The mounting area remains the same as the Reef 450 footprint—310mm x 230mm—so if you’re upgrading from a smaller system, you can upgrade with minimal rework and keep your existing bolting locations intact. This compatibility makes your upgrade choice straightforward and cost-effective.

Under the hood, the base uses the Complete Kilwell ORB1 stainless steel outrigger base system. It features a 39.5mm internal bore designed to be used with 38mm external-diameter outriggers, delivering a secure, snug fit that resists wobble even under heavy trolling. The base also swerves smoothly through 360 degrees and offers three pole positions (vertical, 45 degrees, or flat) to dial in the exact trolling height and angle you need. The bolt-on mounting plate is intended for permanent attachment to the gunwale or cabin top, while the outrigger pole remains removable for storage or transport.

In addition to its rugged construction and precise fit, this base is part of Reelax’s flagship Reef 550 Black Edition system. It’s designed to redefine the wishbone outriggers market, delivering a combination of strength, ease of upgrade, and a clean, stealthy look on deck. If you’re already running Reef 450 components, upgrading to the Reef 550 Black Edition base is a natural step that unlocks longer reach and improved rig geometry.

Ideal for game fishers chasing marlin, tuna, wahoo and other offshore targets who want a dependable, low-maintenance base that stays true from first cast to the last troll. It’s also a smart upgrade for boats that require a compact, mountable base with a strong footprint and straightforward installation.
