Great link. Thank you,

I would agree. Thanks for your input.

For sure!!!

It's interesting you added a wedge to level the dome. I was thinking of ding the same. Also a good idea on measuring for clearance. I'm curious what is your clearance? Boat looks nice with hardtop.

It is a 4kw Radar. Folding the arch is a real pain and would strongly prefer not to as it opens a “can of worms”. Thinking of a compromise solution; using a raised mount (less than 18”) that is hinged.

Ted, I have not measured myself, but your idea is a good one! Will do.

Ted, our air clearance is 16’. The arch does fold down but is not preferred. Could have used radar last weekend, heavy sea fog made visibility a challenge (and a learning experience). This trawler is new to us (though vintage), as is salt water navigation. Purchased specifically for the Loop...

We are heading out on the Great Loop in one month. Most of our trip will be navigating the ICW, so our use is mainly short range. Our top end is 7-8 knots, so our bow does not rise much (if at all). Do we really have to worry about radiation with these new units? I’ve looked at numerous...

The person I spoke with at Garmin pretty much quoted directly from the install manual. I would have felt more confident in his response if he knew the configuration of our boat and also knew that no one else on a boat similar seems to have a radar mounted that high.

This is a picture of our 36’ Heritage East.

We have a 36 ft Nova Sundeck and are liking to add Garmin Radar to it. If I follow Garmin’s specifications I would have to add more than 18” mount to my arch. That seems extremely high especially when I look at pictures of other boats like ours and they are not using as tall of a mount. Any...
