We are having our boat yard install radar on the mast and they are asking for a mast schematic so they will know where they can drill into the mast to mount the radar without damaging anything. If I cannot provide the schematics they will need to take down the mast, which I'd rather not do.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Never heard of a "mast schematic ". I think what they need is cross-section of the mast. If you can find the mast maker and model number, perhaps you can get what you need online.

What Barry said. Talk with the spar manufacturer about mast wiring. They will have the basics showing configuration and the wiring conduit location. Beyond that any competent installer should know how to install a mast radar. Generally there is a portal on the front of the mast with access to the wiring conduit so the installer needs to satisfy themselves that they can access and use this portal. They very may well need to remove the stick to rework the conduit and stick. This is the reason I went with a radar pole on the stern. Same price and it gave me options to mount antenna, GPS, sat radio. Plus I can easily service or R/R.
