Hi all.
I am new to the SR family and to my 2003 270 SD. It had 109 hours on it when I got it and it looked/smelled factory fresh.
I keep it in a slip on the Hudson about 20 minutes from my home.
So far, 50 hours later (in one month) I love the boat and the new addition to my lifestyle (although my golf game is suffering).
I spend about 50% of my time on the water pulling my kids (age range 9-15) on skis, wake boards and tubes.
I know this giant is not the ultimate ski boat, but life is about compromises, right?
I would like to install a ski tower on this boat (well, not me, but a professional will do the drilling and all that).
Here is my question: Have any 270 SD owners (or owners of similar boats) done a retrofit?
If so, did you go with an after-market tower or did you purchase the OEM tower from Monster Tower?
One thing I am concerned about is factory bimini clearance. I have the factory bimini and the factory camper top and want to make sure the tower works with all that gear.
Thanks again for the time, all.
