Ok so I have posted this for the benefit of the forum, i have solved the problem but wanted to share, I have a maxum 3500 and one of my local bridges is to low (my boat could never be to high). So at the upper ends of the tide I can not make it through with my radar assembly up(when the tide breaks 1.0m) so I have been leaving it off until today, with some good old thinking and a helping hand from a mate I set about to fabricate a folding radar, and with some stainless plate, hinges, bolts and welding I can now undo on wing nut, unzip my back canvas and fold my radar upside down into my cabin for the trip under the bridge and back up again easily
