SSB ground

OK.... I've decided that it would be plain daft not to fit a grounding plate while Morgana is out of the water, so i've ordered a Dynaplate grounding shoe.... this is £99..


It'll be interesting fitting it, as it needs a flat area to be mounted on... one that has readily access inside for the mounting bolts, needs to be close to the area where the aerial and therefore ATU will be mounted, and finally, an area that stays imersed when the boat is heeled....


Here is where I think it'll go...


Just aft of the prop, on the centreline... this area is accessible from the lazzarette locker, and also from the hatches in each aft cabin... so would fit the criteria above....
It'll mean drilling holes in the bottom of Morgana though..........
