R31 CB Mast

When putting the mast in the down position - where does the support arm go? does it go into a slot? Do you have any pictures of how this is supposed to be done? Thank you.

There is no slot once the main mast is folded down. I bring the support arm parallel to the main mast once it is folded down and wrap it and the forward guy wire to the main mast with a bungee.

Also, make sure the Command Bridge is well secured once it is retracted. If not, it will fly up at highway speeds.

Patrick is correct but, depending on the year of the boat, this mast has changed quite a bit. If it has the stainless steel support piece off of the starboard side of the mast, you should have a plastic base that the radar mounts too with a threaded stud that you remove so it will hinge. On the stainless mast part under the radar you will notice a piece that gets pinned in place when in the folded down position. If you get time to call into the factory tomorrow, call in at (253)839-5213 and we can see about texting you some photos or emailing them since we will be on a 31 setting it up for the Seattle Boat Show.
