Just installed an Atlantic towers radar arch on the boat. fairly easy task, the galley slave and i did it in a day.

Bought their " tower in a box" model, details from our e-mail exchange are;

"I am familiar with your model Tartan and the arch that has been bought most often was our Off Set arch 101.5/02.5/44. Fits 88-100" forward leg and 78-90" aft leg. Wiggle room is about 8-12" difference in width between front leg and aft leg. This arch is $1999.
Presently the sail arches are on sale for 15% off and optional equipment is less 20%.<http://store.atlantictowers.com/Sail-Arch-Accessories-s/1838.htm>

Picture can be found at;

I plan to put radar, gps, solar panels on it as well as a hoist for the dinghy motor. Have seen others use it to hoist the dinghy as well.

Great option, really happy I did it.

Wow! You're a better man by far than me: it took me a good deal longer than a day to install mine. Pretty handy piece of gear, but I don't believe that the geometry and scantlings of the arch and the bolts that secure it to the deck are stout enough to use it as a dinghy davit.

nah... just maniacal and had a time constraint. Agree, not sure I would hang a dinghy off it myself. ok for radar, antenna, solar and dinghy engine hoist.

and any crew what challenges the captain!
