    FCT5 on a 1996 Super Sport?

    Has anyone tried installing a FCT5 (http://www.nautiqueparts.com/fct5towerraworpainted.aspx) on a 1996 Super Sport ? They come in 88 and 91.25 inch beam dimensions.

    Thanks

    Why install a tower that cost almost one third as much as your boat is worth on the retail market? Plenty of other options out there. Check out the monster mtk, and have it powder coated and your still not out $1500.00 and have a very sturdy tower.

      I think all monster towers look hideous. They are a great product and user friendly, but I hate the way they look. I think the FCT5 would look sick, or it may end up looking a little overkill.

        your boat is a 91" beam and the new 210 is 98" so i highly doubt it will fit!

          This isn't a fct5 but it might give you an idea of what it looks like. I found this on the interwebs somewhere.

            I like the way that looks! Is that a Roswell tower? I wonder if they had to narrow it or if they make it in a smaller size? That looks much better than all of the universal two point towers I have seen.
