run it around the inside of the deck's underside, and possibly, up the surfer body

Would it matter if say 1 inch was sticking out the top? Or will it stuff up? Also can i rap the very end peace of wire sticking out the top in tape?
thanks olly

having the antenna out of the boat is not a problem, best is to drill the back of the figure, and have it comming down there, and running down the shirt of the surfer figure, that way it can be cleverly hidden with waterproof tape, incl the hole, and painted over, rather than having a rod out of his ot her head
