Looks great, but I am assuming you never use a bimini!

[jmoore15]

Nope. Had one on previous and never used it. Don't have one for this boat. Guess I will get a little shade from the boards now��

Looks great. Which racks are those? You drill holes in the tower?

[jmoore15]

They are made by a guy named Corson Piper. I found them on the Wakeworld site. They come unfinished and without the pads. I had them powdercoated and ordered the Dakine surf pads. Yes, I drilled and tapped my tower (after checking w Tige). The first hole is always the hardest to drill Here is a pic of how they ship and after the powdercoat.

I checked those out on wakeworld but was scared to drill into my tower. I seem to screw things up, just by looking at them.

Do you ever put your tower down? I need to sometimes to get into my lift.

[jmoore15]

No I don't ever put my tower down.

Don't know what you gave for those, but here are some finished ones shipped with clamps.. Found em yesterday after seeing your post

Yeah you can now get the set thru Agenda. I think you can still get the direct from Corson in the Wakeworld classifieds. I save some money that way plus didn't need the tube tower clamps.

What bolts did you use? Anything else I would need to get if I get the ones from Wakeworld?

[jmoore15]

The racks came pre drilled and with the necessary bolts.

[dmbisbest]

Man, this is sounding too easy! Any advice on drilling the holes?

[jmoore15]

Yeah, use the pre drilled holes on the racks to make a template on piece of paper, cardboard, etc ... And use that to mark your holes instead of trying to use the rack itself. I would also recommend driing a smaller pilot hole first and then follow with the correct but for your tap. I also used a healthy dose of lock tite.

Had a couple PMs asking for better pics w boards on them so figured I would just post here.
