Johnny Ray, L.L.C.
About Johnny Ray, LLC
Since 1977, Johnny Ray, LLC has been one of the most trusted names in marine electronics mounting solutions. Based in Gadsden, Alabama, the company has spent nearly five decades refining a focused product line built around a single mission: keeping your valuable fish finders, depth finders, and sonar units secure, accessible, and protected on the water. What began as a pioneering idea in 1979 has grown into a comprehensive system of swivel mounts, transducer brackets, and marine hardware that serious anglers rely on trip after trip.
USA-Made Quality You Can Feel
Every Johnny Ray product is manufactured and assembled using U.S. components right here in the United States. The brand's signature swivel mounts are injection-molded from engineering-grade Zytel® 6/6 Nylon — a material chosen specifically for its corrosion resistance and durability in harsh marine environments. Each unit is then hand-assembled in-house with stainless steel screws and springs and individually tested before shipping. Backing that craftsmanship is a Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects, giving anglers long-term confidence in every purchase.
Innovative Swivel Mount Design
The hallmark of Johnny Ray's lineup is its unique self-locking swivel design. All models can be adjusted with just one hand while underway, then lock automatically in place — no knobs to tighten, no levers to fumble with in rough water. A convenient quick-release function lets you remove your electronics at the end of the day to prevent theft or damage, and re-mounting is just as effortless. With 11 swivel models spanning three distinct size platforms for different weight capacities, there's a Johnny Ray mount suited for virtually any fish finder or chartplotter setup.
The flagship JR-208 Swivel Mount exemplifies this engineering approach, offering a lever-release top with 360-degree ratchet rotation and 24 automatic locking positions — capable of supporting today's largest and heaviest electronics units.
Transducer Brackets Built for the Trolling Motor
Beyond swivel mounts, Johnny Ray is equally respected for its line of Lowrance Transducer & Accessory mounting solutions. Products like the JR-1, JR-2, and the innovative JR-3 Speed-Reeder transom bracket are engineered to give anglers a clean, stable transducer signal at any speed. The Speed-Reeder's unique kick-up design shields the transducer from submerged debris, while keeping it in calm, non-turbulent water even when cornering. Whether you're running a Lowrance, Humminbird, Garmin, or Eagle unit, Johnny Ray offers compatible transducer accessories to dial in your sonar setup.
Marine Hardware & Accessories
Rounding out the catalog is an array of hardware parts and accessories including extra mounting bases, adapter plates, replacement swivel tops, and accessory wiring terminals. These components allow anglers to set up multiple docking stations throughout their boat — or even at home, in an RV, or at a storage locker — so their electronics are always ready to deploy. It's this systems-level thinking that sets Johnny Ray apart from generic mounting solutions.
