Installing a Lowrance GPS antenna - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hi folks. I just picked up a Lowrance GPS/FF combo to replace my Eagle 350.

One thing I over looked was the installation (or perhaps I should say the "placement") of the GPS antenna.

I've got a Hobie Revo and cannot find a flat surface, parallel to the water, where I could install this. My preference is to keep the antenna in front rather than in back of me.

Is keeping the receiver parallel to the water critical or can I get away with installation on an angled surface such as the front hatch?

Anybody have another option to fix it this issue?

Thanks in advance
Tommy
