May be, but I don't recall an issue with having the VHF whips on the arch above the outboards. But then again, that was stuff used on the ocean where it was simplex and we needed range.
My bigger concern would be mooring lines with the antenna mounted right down on the deck like that. Or, having it at that level and someone using it as a grab point. An NMO through fiberglass isn't going to support a human.
Not to mention on the same level as the operators head, and close proximity to the aluminum windshield frame.
It might 'work', but it's not ideal.
