Model #58 was designed with the goal of moving the radar up 8' to clear the bimini top, and to also safely clear the crew on deck. We added spreaders for additional accessories like GPS, and used our modular top design so the mast would remain relevant for many years to come, even if the electronics might change. A mid-hinge was implemented to keep within the height restriction of the covered slip, and a bumper was added to hold the radar in place when hinged over. The hinge design uses a pair of locking stainless clamps that are designed to hold up to 700 lbs each safely. Adjustable supports were then added in order to brace the lower half of the mast against a fixed rail for added strength.
