Thank you.

The Baystar helm on the Montauk is mounted using the Sea Star back mount kit. Since the console thickness is about 1", that is the height that is saved.

On my boats I always raise the RPS and consoles, since for me they are all too low. It completely changes and improves the comfort and "feel" of the boats, with better wind protection. For the pre-1983 consoles, I raise them 6". For the 1983 and later consoles, I raise them 4". On all boats, the RPS is raised 6". I have designed the teak "block and beam" riser system I use, and fabricate them myself. I have detailed fabrication and installation drawings for all of them from which I do the work.
