NC11 radar antenna mount quest

[boom23]

Hello all,

This is my first post in this forum...

I'm in the process of buying a 2017 NC11, and I'm pretty excited! I already have a long list of additions, one of which is the radar, but I can't find the part number for the radar antenna mount...

I've seen pictures of the NC11, NC14 and NC37 with the same stainless radar antenna mount, but the dealer can't find the part. He keeps asking for the hull number with that mount. It is the stainless steel radar antenna mount that has the radar at the lowest location, the spot light is over the radar, and the anchor light is on top. Here are some pictures of it: 


You can see more pictures of it here: Radar Antenna Mount on NC11.


Here is the mount on the NC37: 

Does anyone know this radar mount part number?

If I have a fabricator make the mount, does anyone know if the radar antenna is mounted parallel to the hardtop? Some radar antenna installations require few degrees tilt.

Thank you all.

looks like a ScanStrut stainless radar mount

Tilt on RADAR unit is so that it remains level while boat is bow up when on plane.  Raymarine has a wedge to mount under RADAR unit

Did you get this sorted? I have a HI from a boat with radar if that will help

Hi,

My radar amount is on a 6 inch scan strut mount. I agree you should perhaps get the wedge so it’s level one on the plane. I couldn’t find one similar to what you were asking about, so when I added a spotlight I had a custom mount made for it that is beside the radar dish. Not ideal but it works pretty well. You should also consider whether it needs to be a collapsible mount. I know for transporting my boat my mechanic takes my radome off entirely.  The spotlight mount because it is about 18 inches can fold down flat for transport. Happy to send pictures if you like.
