Danny! Thank you for input. Can*t find any photos Paul on SY Kerpa SM#259

Hi Paul, herewith two photos of the mounting for the super wind for the mizzen top. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl Sent from my Vodafone Smart

Hi Again, I believe the D400, while a fine unit is totally unsuitable for mizzen top mounting because of weight, bulk, and its awkward swing to the side feathering. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl
