Scanstrut PowerTower mounts get your radar, satcom dome, or camera up high and solid. Match the mount to your exact device, then support it with the right struts.
Radar, satellite domes, and cameras work best mounted high and level, and Scanstrut builds the PowerTower mounts and supports that put them there. This collection covers aluminum and composite radar mounts, satcom and camera mounts, deck struts, and mast brackets. Choosing right comes down to matching the mount to your exact device, picking the height and material, and supporting the load.
Match the mount to your radar or dome
Scanstrut PowerTower mounts are built for specific devices, with models cut for Raymarine, Garmin, and Navico radomes, and others sized for 30cm, 40cm, and 60cm satcom antennas or for cameras and searchlights. Confirm your radar or dome model and size before ordering so the mount matches the device and bolt pattern. A mount made for your unit drops on without drilling guesswork.
Pick height and material
PowerTower mounts come in heights like 10, 12, and 14 inches, and the right height lifts the radar above the crew and hardtop for a clean sweep while clearing the array. Aluminum mounts are strong and traditional, while composite mounts are lighter and will not corrode, which some owners prefer aloft. Choose the height for the clearance you need and the material for your boat.
Aft-rake and self-leveling options
Some PowerTower mounts add an aft rake or a self-leveling head, which keeps a radome level as the boat trims and pitches so the radar sees a true horizon. On a planing boat that runs bow-high, a leveling or raked mount keeps the picture accurate.
Support the load with struts
A tall mount carrying a heavy radome needs support so it does not flex or vibrate. Scanstrut deck struts brace the mount to the hardtop or deck for a rock-solid platform. Plan the strut length and angle for your installation, and make sure the structure can carry the weight aloft.
Mind weight and clearance
Everything you add up high affects stability, so keep the load within the mount and structure ratings, and confirm the radar or array has room to spin without hitting antennas or the hardtop edge.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick the right Scanstrut mount?
PowerTower mounts are built for specific devices, with models for Raymarine, Garmin, and Navico radomes and others for satcom domes or cameras. Confirm your radar or dome model and size before ordering so the mount matches the device and bolt pattern.
What height PowerTower do I need?
Mounts come in heights like 10, 12, and 14 inches. The right height lifts the radar above the crew and hardtop for a clean sweep while clearing the array. Choose the height for the clearance your installation needs.
Aluminum or composite mount?
Aluminum mounts are strong and traditional, while composite mounts are lighter and will not corrode, which some owners prefer for weight aloft. Both carry the load when sized correctly, so choose by weight and preference.
What is a self-leveling or aft-rake mount for?
A self-leveling head or aft rake keeps a radome level as the boat trims and pitches, so the radar sees a true horizon. On a planing boat that runs bow-high, it keeps the radar picture accurate.
Do I need deck struts?
A tall mount carrying a heavy radome needs struts to brace it to the hardtop or deck so it does not flex or vibrate. Plan the strut length and angle, and confirm the structure can carry the weight aloft.
