Economical Marine Nylon Antenna Mount

The Shakespeare 4186BP/L206B Nylon Ratchet Mount provides reliable, budget-friendly antenna mounting for recreational vessels. Constructed from UV-stabilized, impact-resistant marine-grade nylon polymer, this mount delivers excellent saltwater corrosion resistance and long service life while being significantly lighter and more affordable than metal alternatives.

Integrated Ratchet Adjustment Mechanism

Features Shakespeare's time-tested ratchet design enabling quick, tool-free antenna angle adjustments. Ideal for optimizing VHF signal direction, avoiding overhead obstructions like Bimini tops or T-tops, or lowering antenna for trailering and low bridge clearances. Ratchet mechanism maintains secure positioning during typical recreational boating conditions and moderate weather.

Complete Assembly with Base Plate

Includes integrated L206B mounting base plate for secure deck or gunwale installation. All necessary stainless steel mounting hardware included. Compatible with standard 1-inch diameter antenna masts. The non-metallic nylon construction eliminates corrosion concerns and won't leave rust stains on gel coat or deck surfaces - a common problem with cheaper chrome-plated mounts. Perfect for bay boats, center consoles, small cruisers, and pontoon boats where ease of installation and corrosion resistance are priorities. Simple DIY installation for upgrading or replacing worn antenna mounts.

Pre-assembled version - ready to mount right out of the box. Factory assembled for convenience and guaranteed proper assembly. Perfect for quick installations and DIY boaters who want hassle-free mounting.
