A stabilizer platform (10) mounted to a vessel (20) forpositioning a satellite dish antenna (80) in the azimuth (140) andelevation (160) directions. An azimuth motor (300) and an elevationmotor (310) are mounted in a housing (30). Azimuth motor controlcables (301) and elevation motor control cables (311) are connectedto the motors (300, 310) to carry signals and power for controlling theoperation of the motors (300, 310). The azimuth motor (300) iscoupled to the rotatable platform (40) through a gear arrangementand on top of the platform (40) is mounted an elevation drive (50)which holds the satellite dish antenna (80). Mounted in the platform(40) and coupled to the elevation drive (50) is an elevation gearcluster which rotates with respect to the platform (40) to move thesatellite dish antenna (80) in the elevation direction (160).
