 Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigsI’m looking at setting up a rig with radar for running fog. Wanna see some ideas that others have used in setting up their rigs

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs I don't recall ever seeing one on a mudboat, but completely doable. just get one of them gay redfish tower things and put a Furno radar on it.
usually I just idle along and run on gps in the fog, or sleep in and go shoot in the mid day. |

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs Radar doesn't pick up fiberglass boats that well. Just be cautious when trusting it.
I've seen people put a radar dome on a bracket / pole mount. Good luck. _________________ GTB 1860 w/ 2019 GTR40XD-HO |

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs There was a boat on here recently I think made by timber creek that had a radar on the polling platform

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs I like the setup of your boat. Looks like a great delta or wax rig for sure

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs Finally got it done. Worked great, picked up a lot but I also put ais transceiver on it too, travel safe on the river is the key.

Re: Radar setup for mud-boat/outboard rigs The only true regret is not putting a tunnel on this hull. Next time that’ll be on the “to-do” list
