Bene,
Sometimes too high can limit your view of close-in targets. Get some good info on this before you decide placement.
Steve,
I don't have an exact hight measurement on our antenna, but as you can see from this photo it is mounted a few feet below the spreader. It has never interfered with our roller furler staysail (not shown). A previous owner installed it, so it's a mid-90's vintage unit, but we've been happy with the performance.
P.S. Forgive the two-tone canvas -- we are in the process of converting over to the khaki.
