Default Fish Finder Mounting Options

Just picked up a HB Helix 7. Unit looks awesome and can't wait to get it on the water but I am annoyed that the stock gimbal bracket doesn't allow the unit to be swiveled. The HB quick connect mounts were awesome.

I have been researching the swivel mounting options and have narrowed it down to:

Ram Ball Mount - Ball Mount Options

Johnny Ray Mount - Swivel Mount

I like the idea of the infinite adjustability of the Ram Ball Mount but am concerned that it might fail in rough water.
Has anyone else used the 1.5" Ram Ball Mounts on a similar application?
How easy is it to remove the ff from the mount for storage?

Johnny Ray mounts have rave reviews and seem bullet proof due to simple design.

Thanks in advance.
