Summary
3.5" light to medium duty mini rail mount base for kayak or boat. Suitable for mounting one Scotty, YakAttack, Railblaza, or similar track adapter, for a rod holder, GoPro camera mount, stern light, or my bow light kit. An optional backer plate is also included, if needed for mounting on thinner materials, like a plastic hatch cover. This part is NOT recommended for heavy duty applications, like downriggers or large salt water rod holders.
For a camera mount, you may want to consider these parts to finish the project:
To start: https://www.amazon.com/Scotty-438-Gear-Track-Adapter/dp/B009JAZW6O
Then: https://smile.amazon.com/Scotty-Portable-Camera-Compass-Mount/dp/B0060UH3M2. I have both of the above that I use for various purposes on my yak.
And to top it off for GoPro camera: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2763695
There may be Scotty or other "track mount" arms and mounts for cameras, but hard to recommend something not knowing what camera or how intend to mount it.

Notes:
The above settings produces nice clean results on my printer, but yours may be different since PETG can be a finicky material. PLA+ may be an acceptable material for light duty applications. PLA is NOT recommended. I am working on dialing in ASA, but not there yet. Will update for ASA settings when available.
Post-Printing
Stainless steel hardware required!
For thicker material and light duty accessories: 4 stainless steel M5 countersunk screws or well nuts.
