The tower install was a bit of headache for him, so he will probably lock the doors the next time I pull up with a great idea!!!

Honestly, they did a great job getting it installed and gettng me out for the weekend. I just need to swap the bimini out for a solid black one.

Side note: Thanks to Mac for hooking me up with this tower and everything. After going back and forth on color, I decided to leave it black after all.

Is there any chance that a 2005 tower would fit on a 2000 21i RE? Just curious I'm in the need of a new tower.

Lok under the for sale section. The measurements of the 2005 tower is in there. You can measure and see if the mounting points would fit. My first thought is it will not, but it can not hurt to measure. Is the beam on that boat 102".

After doing this, I learned the 2" difference in the rear leg mounting width does make a difference. The tower does work fine, but the top and bottom do not line up perfectly. Everything bolts together fine, but you can see a slight misalignment (yes I am anal....)

Mr. Cheeky

That is one sweet set-up, a real head turner!

If painting the tower is still on your mind, how about painting the back tower supports yellow. Might make a killer combo!!

Not really sure, the boat is at the lakes. I'll check this weekend. What do you mean it all bolts together fine but there is a slight mis alignment? Just wondering. Thanks, Adam

There is a point where the top arch and the botomm arch (connected to the boat) come together. In a perfect fit, the leg running up from the front mount on the boat (lower arch) and the leg running down from the top would look like one piece. Mine you can see a slight edge where they do not line up perfectly. Again, it looks fine to most, I just have OCD.....

Thanks for the pic Lee, I could not figure out how to get the larger pic without pegging the size limit.

That tower looks great on there, however the bimini sticking straight up in the air looks hideous.
