Installing an FCT 3 on my ski nautique 200 on saturday and was wondering if anyone had some advice for putting one of these one, any tips or tricks or is it pretty much straight forward?

Put grease on the stainless steel bolts that hold it to the boat. Do not use a power driver to run the nuts on the bolts.
The stainless steel bolt threads gall very easily. The nuts will seem tight, but really the threads are just messed up, and then the tower is not attached tight to the boat. -
While these instructions aren't specifically for the FCT3, Roswell has some great write-ups and videos about tower installation on their site.

Since the FCT3 is a Roswell tower, you might contact them to see if they have specific instructions for that tower. If so, post them here!I own and operate Silver Cove Marine, which is an inboard boat restoration, service, and sales facility located in Mooresville, North Carolina.

18 holes
18 is nothing just think if you had to drill 19 holes! Glad you were able to get a hold of Bret. Let us know if you need anything else.Comment
