Supplemental Board Racks--2020 GS22

[steve-o76]

Hi folks! We often have four teenagers or more and four adults on our boat when wakeboarding and surfing. At a minimum, all four teens have their own wakeboards that fill our racks, not leaving room for MY board (that is generally shared by all of us novice adults). Thus, I'm looking for two suggestions. First, where might I mount an additional board rack (or pair of racks) on the tower of our 2020 GS22. Second, what board rack would you recommend to mount in said location (see question 1) Thanks in advance for any input!

p.s. Apologies if I should have posted this in one of the sub-forums

There is really no great place for additional racks on these towers.

My suggestion would be to get a bimini top that can hold some boards. The factory bimini can have surf pockets added, or you could find someone selling a Z5 Cargo Bimini that would hold three wakeboards.

Thanks Jeff! I failed to mention that our bimini has surf pockets built in already. We've only ever used the bimini pockets for sur boards. Is it acceptable to put wakeboards in the surf pockets on our bimini?

[NautiqueJeff]

Probably not, considering the extra weight.

If anyone is interested, we bought and installed the Monster Tower Wakeboard/Surfboard Combo Rack (black) as a supplemental board rack. We have about ten hours of riding/cruising with this thing onboard and it's been fantastic. The rack is solid as can be and hasn't flinched. The additional weight of the rack and boards doesn't seem to stress the tower in any way. Similarly the higher-up placement doesn't impair sight lines. At just $199 ($235 with tax and 2-day shipping), this is an excellent solution in my opinion. Oh, and I think it complements the rest of the boat really well!

It looks good.
