    Tower for 2006 SV211

    A few weeks ago we we idling back to our dock after skiing when a bass boat took off from near the shore straight towards us. He didn't see us and ended up running right into and over the front of our SV211. The whole family was in the boat and luckily nobody was injured. The windshield and the tower took the hit and saved us from the other boat coming down into the passenger area. The tower broke in two places and got really bent up.

    So now the boat is at the dealer and they are working on getting it fixed up. Unfortunately they have not been able to locate a replacement tower. Apparently the company that made them does not make them anymore and doesn't even really sell parts for them.

    Does anybody know where I might be able to get my hands on a tower for a 2006 SV211?

    Wow, you and your family are so lucky that you didn't get hurt.

    i've seen a couple of towers go up for sale here and on correctcraftfan.com, but there aren't many. You may need to look at getting a newer tower or different brand or welding yours back together with something like a pipe inside of it to strengthen it up? I'm not the engineer to ask.

    Unfortunately, I've been hit by another boat and we didn't fare as well, so while I am sad to see your boat damaged, glad to hear you family was ok.

      Wow scary stuff, so glad to hear everybody is ok.

      You might want to check with Zach at N3 Boat Works. I know they had a 211 tower lying around this past winter and they may still have it.

        Thanks for the information. I spoke with Zach at N3 and unfortunately he only has the upper portion of the tower and no lower legs (same situation my dealer is in). He was very helpful and gave me a suggestion on a tower from Roswell that may be an option.

          Glad to hear everyone is ok. Give the guys at New Dimensions a call and see what they can make for you. Or remove the tower, fix the gelcoat sell the boat and upgrade with insurance $$.
