Rotated & resized...

Do you bring a tender with you? ...or did you take a water taxi?
And where's your genoa? ...looks like a roller-furler with no sail attached?

That looks like the NorCal summer fog we get out here!

I use a small kayak to get to her, she sits about 50 yards off the beach. I keep my Genoa rolled up down below because its a laminate. Thanks for resizing and rotating for me, I cant seem to get pictures uploaded correctly but I will get it.

How's that windex work with the antenna there? Looks like they'd collide?

 

[SailSmith]

The antenna has about a six inch offset due to some built in 90 degree bends. About two inches of clearance for the windex.

Is the antenna itself bent or is there a bend in the support for the antenna base?

Bending the antenna itself will affect the radiation pattern. That means it won't work as well, and it could be significant.

Yeah I don't know, The antenna is bent but it came like that and ive seen others like it. seems to work well.
