Tower for 1997 Ski Nautique Open Bow

[marshall41]

Looking for information on a tower that will fit my 1997 Ski Nautique Open Bow. Called CorrectCraft today and they told me that they no longer make the OEM Flight Control Tower for my year boat.

Anyone found the company that actually made these towers for CorrectCraft?

Anyone know of a company that makes a tower for my year and style of boat?

The problem seems to be that I have the Ski Nautique Open Bow.

Thanks for your help.

New Dimensiontowers does not make a tower for the
1997 SNOB. I spoke with Rich at New Dimensions on the phone yesterday and they have never made a tower for an 1997 SNOB.
They do make a very nice tower for the 1997 Nautique. I really like the look of there tower too!

I was bummed to find out they had never made one for the SNOB.

Thanks for the help.

Talk to them. They didn't have one for my 1981 because no one ever asked for one before. They even cut me a great deal for driving that far so they could make a pattern! I don't know if they'd still make a deal for someone for the pattern for their boat, but I bet they'd still make the tower!!!

aftermarket towers...

The OEM Flight Control Towers are nice, but the Air Boom 3D towers are better. Call Rich, really nice and very helpful.

Try www.airboom.com

Like 8 colors are stocked and everything is UPS shipable.

They have killer accessories and the prices are very reasonable. I have one on my 96 SNOB and have a bunch of pictures if you want to see how it turned out. PM me and I can email you some pics. I have yet to learn how to post pics on here still!

Larry,

Thanks for the information, but I live in California. It would cost too much money in gas to tow the boat to there shop. I did talk to them many times on the phone and they were very helpful. Rich told me that they could not guarantee a fit on my boat, as they have never made a tower for a 1997 SNOB. Rich from New Demintion was the one that suggested I not take a chance on buying a tower that they could not guarantee would fit my boat. :???:

Thanks again,

Marshall

Marshall41, If you want a FCT/ND you should get what you want. If you are in So Cal i can hook you up with the fabricator that made the lower legs for my tower. I put a FCT tower from a Super Sport on a closed bow SN. The fabrication and fresh powdercoat was only few hundred dollars. I had never seen a FCT on 95 SNCB til i did it. I have read that even the FCT's take a little tweaking to get them on the boats they are made for. Good Luck.

Darrel409,

Man your boat looks real sweat with the FCT! :grin:
I really do want a FCT for my boat! I am located in Corona, CA.
Please let me know who the fabricator was that made the lower legs of you FCT. I really like the look of the FCT better than the other after market towers. I want if order the tower in a brushed aluminum finish. Wonder if that will cause in issues.

Thanks for the photo! By the way, that looks like the Parker strip area in your photo. I grew up going to the Parker strip area. I love
that place.

Thanks

Marshall, here are a couple pics of my boat. Air Boom 3D Tower. www.airboom.com. Of course it's all personal preference, but I prefer the more "curved" look. Where in So Cal are you?

[surroundsound64]

That looks really good SoCal!!!
