Calypso has a radar mast on the stern. It has worked well for the last 20 
years. We included a “tilt” function to compensate for heel angle on long racks.

On our last boat, a C&C 36 (1980) we installed a Questus backstay pole which 
also worked well.

I do recommend make a stern mount high enough to avoid getting hit in the back 
of the head by the radar transmitter energy.

I know  it is traditional to mount radar on the mast but I am thinking of 
mounting it on a post on the stern with an antenna farm.  Any thoughts on this 
option?
