    Take a look at SGC's web site, <http://www.sgcworld.com/>. SGC is a
    prominent manufacturer of automatic antenna couplers. Browse the site,
    and you will find their publications describing how to mount antennas in
    various kinds of vessels.

    I have had good success with their automatic antenna couplers, even with
    rather sub-optimal antennas. You can learn a lot by reading their material.

    I highly recommend automatic antenna couplers -- whether from SGC or
    their competitors, LDG.
