I'm running all of my gps antenna under the deck. All seem to work fine.

As long as the deck isn't conductive (carbon or metal) it shouldn't attenuate the signal any significant amount.

hope it helps

A lot of the new GPS/Chartplotter systems are comming with under deck mounts now.....

On the Gambler that I used to have I had it on the floor way under the consold and with the Allison I have now it is under the dash with the gauges. Both worked as good as if the were in the wide open.

Just make sure the top of the antenna points up, have seen many of them be intermittent, beause there are mounted up side down or stuck on a side panel. 360 degree with out obstruction is ideal for satelite reception.

I used an ''L'' bracket[like a plant hanger]under the deck on the bulkhead in front of the foot throttle!
