Thanks in advance.

Along with the Tower, Wayne should send you pics and detailed instructions.

Thanks Larry , can you ball park how long the install took?

[campbelljo]

Seems as if New Dimension left out those pictures of how to lay out the front legs of the tower and the measurement chart to assure the tower did not get distorted during shipping.

Thanks to the pics of Joel's tower i installed mine however the starboard leg landed on top of the air intake box which required cutting with air tools and tiny cutting disk.
It was a nice 14 hour install.

Anyway Joel how did you get the starboard wake to not wash out. The left side is perfect. I have two Pro-x side sacs approx 600 total and a Pro-x bow sac approx 400 total. Any help would be appreciated.

Campbelljo..........Have any pics? I also have BF/Excel, it has a titan tower on it now, but am looking to get a ND tower.Thks

[campbelljo]

Ill try to get some this weekend at least. I keep the boat at the lake. Do you have any ballast? Did you have trouble cleaning up the starboard side of the wake?

[RCHANDED]

Thanks, would love to see some pics....
as for now my friends are my ballast..........an automatic ballast system is in the works for a fall project, so to answer your question, I can get both sides nice when I place people in certain spots.

Campbelljo-

We always have to adjust the seating situation in the boat in order to get both wakes perfect. I typically have a 400 lbs. sac under the closed bow, 3-4 people, and 400 lbs. of ballast in the back engine compartment.

RCHANDED-

Here are a few updated pics of my '91 BF w/ New Dimension Tower.

I an thinking about buying a barefoot/excel and was wondering if you guys could post some pictures of the wake? Weighted and unweighted would be cool.
