Raymarine A92159 Pedestal Mounting Adapter Plate

Installing a high-performance radar system on your vessel just got simpler with the Raymarine pedestal mounting adapter plate. Designed specifically for seamless integration with Pathfinder, HD, and SHD open array pedestals, this adapter lets you position your radar pedestal securely from the topside of your boat's mounting surface—think deck arches, radar masts, or custom risers. No need to disassemble the pedestal itself, keeping your setup clean and hassle-free.

Why Boaters Rely on This Adapter Plate

Marine environments demand rugged, corrosion-resistant gear that stands up to salt spray, UV exposure, and constant vibration. Crafted from premium stainless steel with a durable white epoxy finish, this plate resists the elements while maintaining a sleek, professional look on any yacht or offshore cruiser. It's not just about holding your radar in place; it's engineered to enhance stability and alignment for optimal scanning performance, whether you're navigating busy harbors or tracking distant targets on long passages.

Key Specifications and What's Included

• Material: High-grade stainless steel for superior strength and longevity in harsh marine conditions.
• Finish: Tough epoxy coating that prevents rust and fading.
• Compatibility: Perfect fit for Raymarine Pathfinder, HD, and SHD open array pedestals—no modifications required.
• Hardware Supplied: Four M4 stainless steel flat-head screws paired with isolation washers to secure the plate to the pedestal, minimizing electrical interference.
• Mounting Design: Four precisely pre-drilled corner holes for user-supplied bolts, allowing flexible attachment to various surfaces.

Effortless Installation Guide

Setting up this adapter takes minutes, even for DIY boaters. Here's a straightforward process:

1. Position the adapter plate on your chosen mounting surface (like a radar arch) and mark the four corner holes.
2. Drill pilot holes and secure the plate using corrosion-resistant bolts or screws rated for marine use.
3. Align the pedestal over the plate's center hole.
4. Fasten the pedestal to the plate using the provided M4 screws and isolation washers—tighten snugly without accessing the pedestal internals.
5. Double-check alignment and torque specs from your radar manual for peak performance.

This topside mounting approach keeps wiring runs tidy and protects the pedestal base from deck moisture, extending your radar's service life.

Real-World Advantages for Serious Mariners

Offshore anglers, commercial operators, and weekend cruisers appreciate how this adapter simplifies upgrades. Pair it with a compact 4-foot array for agile sportfishing boats or a 6-foot version for enhanced target discrimination on larger vessels. The stainless construction handles the pounding of rough seas, while the epoxy finish blends with modern deck aesthetics. Skip the guesswork of custom fab work—this plate delivers OEM-quality fitment that boosts your radar's reliability when it counts most.
