The Clean-Install Rail Mount — Watertight Seal, Internal Cable Routing
The Scanstrut RA-01 Stainless Steel Rail Mount is the premium choice for boaters who want a GPS or VHF antenna mounted on their rail with a truly professional finish. Where most rail brackets leave the coax cable exposed and vulnerable, the RA-01’s internal cable routing channels the antenna cable cleanly through the mount and down the rail — no exposed runs, no chafe points, no zip ties.
The watertight seal protects the cable entry point from spray, rain, and wash-down, keeping your connection dry and corrosion-free over years of use. The mount is machined from stainless steel and engineered to Scanstrut’s exacting marine standards — the same brand trusted by professional installers and superyacht riggers worldwide.
Fits any 1" vertical or horizontal rail and accepts standard GPS and VHF antennas, making it a direct upgrade from plastic or basic stainless rail brackets on any vessel.

🔧 Parts Desk Insights
Best use case: The RA-01 is the go-to for serious cruisers, offshore passagemakers, and any boater who cares about a clean, professional-looking installation and doesn’t want exposed coax running down the outside of their rail. It’s especially popular on sailboats where the stern rail is the primary VHF antenna location, and on powerboats where the helm area is already tidy and the owner wants the antenna installation to match. The watertight seal makes it the right call for any vessel regularly exposed to spray or wash-down. Installers and riggers who specify Scanstrut do so because the hardware holds up and looks right years later.
Heads up: This mount is designed for 1" rails only — confirm your rail diameter before ordering. If you have 7/8" rails, the Sea-Dog Nylon Rail Mount Bracket (SED-327148-1) fits both 7/8" and 1" rails at a lower price point. If you need a lever-action laydown handle for bridge clearance or trailering, the Sea-Dog 316 SS Lever-Action Rail Mount Bracket is the alternative — though it lacks the internal cable routing that makes the Scanstrut the cleaner install.
