We have just purchased a 460, and will be installing a SSB radio soon. Any thought on antennas, seeing as there is no backstay, and I don't think a whip would be attractive?

A Lead ?

Chris oldham's H450 Edu-De-Vie had a SSB modification to its rig. Check the archives, or look through his posts on this site in the Hunters At Sea section. Look about 2/3 down the navigation on the right of the home page. RD

Shakespear 3 section whip

The Shakespear 3 section whip (about $200 and ships UPS) would not look overpowering on a 460. It is 23' with the last 1/3 being a ss whip. It mounted fairly low on the stern it looks like a large MOB pole. We have one on our new Beneteau 411. Good Luck George
