The RAILBLAZA StarPort is a compact, permanent mounting point that can be surface mounted on a deck or flush mounted into a panel. Once installed, it gives you a secure, low-profile socket for Birdboss using the Birdboss RAILBLAZA StarPort Adaptor Base (BRAB) – and a cap and gasket to keep it clean and watertight when Birdboss is removed.
Suitable Locations and Applications
- Flat horizontal or vertical surfaces: decks, cabin tops, gunwales and transoms
- Jetty and pontoon decking
- Permanent installations where you want a clean, low-profile mounting point
How It Connects to Birdboss
This mount has a built-in RAILBLAZA StarPort socket. Fit the Birdboss RAILBLAZA StarPort Adaptor Base (BRAB) to your Birdboss, insert it into the StarPort and turn it until the locking slide clicks into place. To remove Birdboss, release the slide, turn and lift out – the mount stays in position, ready for next time.

Installation and Safety Notes
- Check for wiring, fuel lines and structure behind the panel before drilling.
- Seal all fixings on boats to prevent water entering the core.
- Remove Birdboss when the boat is under way and in extreme winds (over 40 knots).
- Position Birdboss so the arms can rotate freely, clear of rigging, antennas, canopies and people.
- Adjust the Birdboss arms evenly so the unit stays balanced.
- Check the mount, StarPort lock and Birdboss fittings regularly, especially after rough weather.
- Rinse the mount and BRAB with fresh water after exposure to salt spray.
