Simple, Reliable YS Mounting for Sea & Sea Strobes

The Sea & Sea YS Base Adapter is a genuine Sea & Sea mounting accessory designed to provide a traditional YS-style connection for compatible underwater strobes.

Sea & Sea describes the design as its classic YS base, providing easy vertical movement when positioning your strobe. This makes it a straightforward solution for replacing a lost or damaged base or configuring a Sea & Sea strobe for a YS-style arm system.

Easy Underwater Strobe Positioning

Good strobe positioning is one of the most important parts of underwater photography.

Being able to move your strobe away from the housing and adjust its angle helps you control where the light falls on your subject. Proper positioning can also help minimize backscatter by keeping the strongest portion of the strobe beam away from particles directly in front of the lens.

The YS Base provides a simple pivoting connection that allows the strobe to swing vertically when attached to a compatible YS-style arm or mounting point.

Traditional YS-Style Connection

The YS mount is a widely used connection style in underwater photography. Rather than using a 1-inch ball directly on the strobe, the YS Base provides the familiar fork-style interface used with compatible YS adapters and arm systems.

This makes the adapter useful for photographers who already have a YS-based tray and arm configuration and want to integrate a compatible Sea & Sea strobe.

Genuine Sea & Sea Construction

Sea & Sea specifies corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy construction for Product No. 28114.

For underwater photographers, using the correct manufacturer mounting component also removes uncertainty about whether an improvised adapter will properly fit the strobe.

Compatible Sea & Sea Strobes

Sea & Sea currently lists the YS Base for:

• YS-D130R
• YS-D3 series
• YS-D2 series
• YS-D1

This makes it particularly useful as a replacement part for photographers keeping an existing Sea & Sea lighting system in service.

Mozaik Tip: This is a YS-style base, not a 1-inch ball adapter. Before ordering, check the end of your existing strobe arm. If your arm system terminates in a 1-inch ball and clamp, you may need a different strobe adapter or an additional YS-compatible connection.

Great Replacement or Spare Part

Small mounting components can bring an otherwise complete underwater lighting system to a stop.

If you travel frequently with your underwater camera equipment, keeping the correct mounting hardware available can save a dive trip when a component becomes lost or damaged.

The YS Base is therefore useful both as a direct replacement and as a spare for photographers using compatible Sea & Sea strobes.
