What's the best rearview mirror?
What's the best rearview mirror out there? I'm looking for a good one at a good price. If you've purchased one for your boat can you recommend one? Please send a link of where I could buy it, too, if it's available online. I want to use it to see people I tow when they are tubing or wake boarding. I have a 2005 Moomba Outback.

I bought this one because I like the quick release (I remove when trailering). I was cheaper than others I've seen. This will be my 5th season (kept it when I sold my old boat), and I've had zero issues with it.

Are you looking for a tower mount mirror or windshield?
If you are looking for windshield, this mirror is a solid design. Can mount above or below the frame.

I have a tower mount on my boat. This is the arm that I use; Fixed mount. Glass purchased seperately, but they sell that too. Downside is that you have to loosen it to move to fold the tower down.

yes that would be a nice one too. I have to remove mine or move it to get the boat in my garage so I got the quick release mount. The one you have the link for would have to be loosened with an allen wrench if you needed to move it. If that's not a concern, I'd go with it.

monster tower quick release arm and mirror is what I have. Bought if for my old 03 LSV and liked it so much I kept if for the 08, easily adjustable for sitting down in the seat or when the bolster is up, removable for trailering or when its not needed and rock steady when in choppy waters

I have the Monster Tower quick release arm as well, love it. I went with the Cipa Extreme mirror which has the ball and socket mount, so you need this adapter to use the Extreme mirror with any of those arms.
