B & G Mast Bracket for Nemesis 9 Product Description
Seamless Mast Mounting for Optimal On-Water Performance
Enhance your sailing setup with a dedicated mast bracket designed specifically for the Nemesis 9 display. This robust accessory ensures secure, vibration-resistant mounting high on the mast, delivering unobstructed views of critical navigation data right where you need it most—without cluttering the cockpit. Sailors appreciate how it positions the screen for quick glances during tacks and jibes, reducing the need to crane necks or rely on secondary displays.
Crafted from marine-grade materials, it withstands harsh saltwater environments, UV exposure, and relentless wind loads. Unlike generic brackets, this one integrates flawlessly with B&G's ecosystem, maintaining cable routing clean and protected for reliable connectivity to wind sensors, depth sounders, and autopilot systems.
Perfect Fit and Versatile Integration
Tailored exclusively for the Nemesis 9, this bracket supports both portrait and landscape orientations, adapting to your vessel's rigging and personal preferences. It accommodates standard B&G mounting patterns, making retrofits straightforward on most modern sailboats from dinghies to bluewater cruisers.
- Secure Lock Mechanism: Tool-free adjustments for angle and height, with a positive lock that holds firm in 40+ knot gusts.
- Cable Management: Built-in channels route power and data cables discreetly along the mast, minimizing drag and wear.
- Low-Profile Design: Reduces windage by hugging the mast closely, preserving aerodynamics for racing or performance cruising.
- Durability Boost: Powder-coated aluminum construction resists corrosion longer than stainless alternatives in acidic marine atmospheres.
Pair it with B&G's Sailing Pack for a complete high-performance suite, where real-time polar data and layline overlays shine from your elevated vantage point.
Effortless Setup with Pro Tips
Installation takes under 30 minutes for experienced riggers. Start by aligning the bracket with existing mast steps or halyard sheaves, secure with provided hardware, then snap the Nemesis 9 into place. Pro tip: Apply dielectric grease to stainless fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion in dissimilar metals.
For optimal visibility, angle the display 10-15 degrees downward—ideal for helmsmen of varying heights. Test in light airs first to confirm no interference with sails or running rigging. Many users report it transforms tactical decision-making, especially in fleet racing where split-second wind shifts matter.

Long-Term Reliability and Real-World Applications
Beyond racing, offshore adventurers value its role in monitoring AIS traffic and weather radar from the spreaders. Regular fresh-water rinses after sails extend its lifespan, while the modular design allows easy display swaps for future upgrades.
Compared to cockpit pods, mast mounting cuts glare by 40% in midday sun, thanks to the shaded overhead position. It's a smart investment for anyone prioritizing safety and speed on the water.
