I'm looking at putting the Garmin Phantom 24 on the top of a 2022 GW 232. Should I have the dealer put a pedestal mount on top of the hardtop for the dome to sit on or not? I'm concerned about the overall height with an added pedestal over 13'6". Thoughts and advice?

Scanstrut has several. On my 268 Islander with the GMR18 Fantom and no base I’m at 12’ 0”.

Clearance depends a lot on your trailer.

I've been seeing a few guys on 228's installing 4" risers. This may be the way to go with the install.

You should be fine but its best to hookup the trailer and check it on level ground.
