Abstract: A fishing boat equipment mounting system is provided including a boat having a horizontal deck included therewith with a plurality of seat post holes formed therein for releasably receiving a plurality of seat posts. Next provided is at least one mounting plate including a top face and a bottom face with a periphery formed therebetween. The periphery is defined by a pair of linear parallel side edges and semi-circular end edges. Each mounting plate further has a gripping layer situated along the entire bottom face. A seat post bore and a plurality of mounting apertures are formed between the top and bottom face. By this structure, fishing equipment may be mounted on the top face of the mounting plates and the seat post bore of one of the mounting plates may be aligned with one of the seat post holes of the deck of the boat. Thereafter, one of the seat posts may be situated through the seat post hole and bore, thereby maintaining the mounting plate and fishing equipment in a constant orientation.
