Default Radar Wedge

Jim,
Would I also need a wedge for my Garmin Radar Mount?????? We can discuss this when you call 215 7784164.

Thanks,
Rick

Default Re: Radar Wedge

Radar's have a 20-25 degree vertical "view" (depending upon model and brand) but many still opt to wedge a few degrees down to mitigate the bow up angle if loaded stern heavy or otherwise cruising bow high.
