cables belowdecks (if mounting the antenna to the
deck, route the cables into the cable access hole
that you cut out in Step 4).

each cable exits the proper opening (see
Figure 2-11). Using the six M4 screws supplied in
the kitpack, attach the logo plate to the baseplate
as shown in Figure 2-11.

holes drilled in the foundation, ensuring the
connectors face the stern.
