Rupp Marine Top Gun Bolt-In Revolution Outrigger Base Pair

Upgrade your trolling setup with the innovative Top Gun Bolt-In Revolution Outrigger Base from Rupp. This pair of bolt-in bases is engineered for straightforward installation on either hard or soft tops, making it the perfect retrofit or new-build solution for serious offshore anglers. Built to endure saltwater abuse and heavy weather, these bases combine quick deployment with rock-solid reliability, so you can focus on the catch rather than the setup.

Why this base stands out

What sets the Top Gun Revolution bases apart is the seamless combination of a flexible, bolt-in design and a precision locking system that works with minimal effort. A quarter-turn of the handle disengages the internal locking pin, allowing fast deployment and secure positioning without lifting heavy outrigger weight. When you retrieve, the system automatically locks itself into place, ensuring stability in demanding chop and high-speed trolling alike.

Core features and benefits

• Bolt-in versatility – Installs or retrofits on both hard tops and soft tops, simplifying upgrades or new station setups without specialized drilling or mounting hardware beyond the forge-mounted flange.
• Fast, reliable deployment – The quarter-turn handle releases a locking pin for instant deployment and secures automatically on retrieval, so you’re ready to fish with minimal downtime.
• Rugged construction – Anodised aluminum body paired with stainless steel locking components delivers enduring corrosion resistance in harsh marine environments.
• Precisely sized mounting – Forged 101.6 x 152.4 mm (4" x 6") mounting flange and compatibility with 38.1 mm (1.5") diameter outrigger poles provide a strong, standardized fit for dependable performance.
• Poles match with confidence – Designed to accept 1.5" diameter outrigger poles; Rupp carbon fiber poles are an ideal combination for reduced weight and maximum strength.
• Pair for dependable setup – Sold in pairs to ensure balanced stability and consistent performance across both outriggers.
• Brand reliability – Rupp’s Top Gun line is backed by a Three Year Warranty, underscoring long-term durability and support for demanding offshore use.
