When the antenna sits low to the water, waves and surface chop can block or absorb the signal. Reflections off the water surface can also cause interference and reduce performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mast raises the antenna two feet above the BlueBoat deck, improving line of sight for stronger, more stable communication.
