Has anyone found a replacement to the rather weird/small integrated pedestal "guard" that's on the 311 and I believe other boats of that vintage?
I've put a Ram mount on it to mount an MFD, but would much rather extend it up a bit, and buy a pod or other device. Having the Ram mount is flexible and great, but now people moving about the cockpit are afraid to grab the pedestal when needed, and I think that's caused a bit of a safety issue.
It's about 10.5" wide center to center, which doesn't match the Edson, Whitlock or other guard replacements out there from Ocean Equipment and others. I can't seem to find any other info out in my rather exhaustive internet searches, so wondering if folks here have found a replacement or had to have something made.
