I added a chart plotter and RAM mic last year and followed the same  
process - lifted the pedestal, drilled down on the starboard side,  
etc.  I was luckier than Allan I guess in that I don't recall much  
trouble getting the wires up the starboard tube.

The mistake I made was not sealing the joint between the tube and the  
deck adequately.  I had to lift the tube again a few months later and  
do a better job.
