crestliner suremount mounting brackets

I have a crestliner 1650 with the suremount mounting brackets. has anyone used dipsey divers with the rod holder bracket. these brackets seem secure but it is hard to believe one little set screw will hold them. thanks for any  input.

Do you have a pic I'm not sure what you are talking about? Didn't you ask this before?

I also have a 1650 with the Suremount brackets.

The little allen key forces the two dovetail pieces into the slot around the gunnels. It exerts a lot of clamping force.

I have two downriggers mounted using their brackets, and it is extremely solid. I have had the ball hang up on bottom and nearly stop my boat and the mount was fine.

The Dipsy should be fine.
