garmion radar mount

[djboots]

I'm just wondering if anyone has a garmin dome radar and what mount to use. Do i need a 4 or 6 degree and how many inch's tall do i get?

I had a mount similar to the Seaview PMF-57-M1, but I had the name removed, so I'm not sure what brand it was. It was about 10" tall, with parallel plates. Luke's shimmed it by putting extra stainless nuts under the aft portion of the baseplate and then caulked the gap. That only compensated for the angle of the arch though, which was fine for me. I don't mind sacrificing some on-plane performance to have it level when I'm going slow, such as at night and in dense fog, which IMO, is when accuracy is most important.

I used this 5" tall 4 degree forward tilt mount on our 400DA for the 18" HD dome. Worked well.

Here's a post with the parts list including the seaview mount and seaview light bar that I got for my install (which the BOE guys did a great job on!). You can see how the mount and light look in my sig pic.

I have a Stainless steel mount like the one above. I took it off my boat when I added the Tracvision & switched to the dual mount. It had my Garmin 18 Radome mounted on it. If you're interested in it, shoot me a pm. It has the light bar on it too.

Yes, yes it is. - I actually have a brand new one in the box ( got two in an ordering mixup) I would make you a deal on. PM me if interested.

I have an 18" SeaScan 6 degree mount on my '89 300DA with a HD-18 mounted to it. I went with the taller mount to elevate the radome so I can stand at the helm and not 'nuke' my head so doing. The 6 degree tilt works well on my boat as the 300's of that period tend to be stern heavy and the arch is swept back also. FWIW.
