Radar post

[striper56]

I'm installing a Lowrance radar and need to install a radar post on my 74 Sceptre. Has anybody used Seaview products before. I priced it out at around $500.00 for the base, 8ft of 3 inch tubing, the top plate and bulk head clamp all powder coated white. I can buy this one or go to a local guy have him build one and powder coat it for around a $800.00.
I was going to mount it on the port side in front of the seat in the corner with one deck plate and then mount a bracket to the bulk head. If somebody has any other ideas as to where to mount the radar I'm open for suggestions.

Thank
Ken
