I had one from Fishmaster on my 14' skiff, and putting the same one on my Gheenoe. I bolt a 2"x2" aluminum angle across the legs and attach a 12"x9" piece of 1/2" Starboard to it as a shelf. I make sure there's enough clearance to swivel the GPS. You can drill some holes in the Starboard to hold pliers and whatever fish grabber you use, and I even recessed a cupholder into the last one I did. Works great.
It's removable, which is great when you need to flip the boat over for something, but the connection point gets a little wobbly after a few years. I made "splints" out of PVC pipe that snapped over the joint and then attached it with stainless hose clamps. I'll be doing the same for the current one if I ever finish my Gheenoe remodel.
