This is a prime example of an OEM pedestal guard that was simply too short. I did not want the owner accidentally grabbing the plotter when looking for a hand hold so we opted for the taller SG10 pedestal guard..
I just bought your chart plotter mount for my boat. I am mounting an E7D as well, but will be adding radar next year. I also moved my radio RAM mike over so I can mount it here. My question is - if I take these wires down the inside of the pedestal, the 3 will require at least 2 holes, so I was considering running the wires down the outside. How do you take them through the cockpit floor? Thanks in advance, your site is a great help.
