Common Concerns Answered
Are the necessary mounting plates included with the Scanstrut Dual PowerTower Strut?
Mounting plates are not included with the Scanstrut Dual PowerTower Strut and must be purchased separately. This allows for customization to specific electronic devices, but it is important to factor this additional cost into your overall project budget.
Is the installation of the Scanstrut Dual PowerTower Strut straightforward for a DIY boater?
Installation complexity is rated at 4/5, as it requires precise measurement, careful planning, and potentially structural drilling. While the modularity simplifies device attachment, ensuring the strut's secure and structurally sound mounting to your vessel may necessitate professional assistance for optimal safety and performance.
What are the main benefits of the modular design?
The primary benefit of the modular design is its ability to facilitate the integrated mounting of multiple electronic devices, such as an open array radar, a Satcom antenna, and a camera, onto a single, compact strut. This significantly optimizes deck space and streamlines the overall installation process compared to using individual mounts for each device.
