Hi all! I hope I'm posting this in the right place.

I have a 1988 Cruisers Inc. VeeSport 2660. I would like to install radar (a JRC that I already have) to the radar arch. Now there are 2 issues... First of all, I have full camper canvas, so I need a mount that will bring the radome above the front canvas. The second issue is that the radar arch is thinner in the center than on the sides. It gives me 4-5 inches of surface to mount something. Does anyone have any ideas for a mount other than having something custom fabricated? I was thinking of getting one with a larger base and bolting it around the arch instead of through it, kind of like the way U-bolts are used to mount an axle to leaf springs. This is unless someone knows of a mount with a base plate that's, perhaps, 6x6 or a touch smaller.

I'm looking for ideas, suggestions, or solutions others have used.

Thanks.

Well, if a Moderator agrees that the electronics section would be more appropriate, I would like to request that this thread be moved. I wouldn't want to double up on the threads.

Thanks.
