Roswell Aviator Tower board racks question

[Canuck-Surfer]

Another question as part of my 1996 Sport Nautique restoration. I have switched gears and am going to put in an Aviator Pro (with OEM flush mount base with 4" risers) instead of the Cam RT I originally planned. When I found out the Aviator Pro had a flush mount base, that sealed the deal.

My question is regarding the racks, I can either go for a dual surf board rack on one side and a dual wakeboard rack on the other side or I can go with 2 matching wakeboard/surf board combo racks on each side. Thoughts or implications that make one option better than the other?

I'd say whatever you prefer will work fine.

Good choice on the Aviator Pro. You'll love it.

I think you are right, I'm so stoked. Here is another question...the only think I like about the Cam RT over the Aviator is the that Cam RT is square and leaves more headroom for walking considering the boat is a direct drive. The Aviator slants in a good bit which is not an issue on a V-drive that has seating around the sides and walkway in the center. Have you seen a 90's Sport or Ski with the Aviator Jeff? Does it impede on walking around? Roswell features the non-pro version on a 95 Sport on the website, but they mounted the tower on the outside 45 degree slant of the gunwale, not on top like I will with the Pro. That bought them some horizontal space. Anyhooo....I'm already decided, but was just curious if you've seen this and if its an issue at all.

We sell recommenced and use Roswell here in Australia... never had an issue with headroom from the tower itself I’m 5” 10 ... if your going for shadow top Bimini the zip out centre section is great when moving around boat through walkway etc. Speakers being above the shadow top when mounted have never been an issue either.
if you are taller than me and think height might be an issue for you I recommend ordering the Roswell risers with the Aviator Pro and the standard folding Aviator Bimini.

I'm 6'5 and have the Aviator Pro / Risers and a Shadow Top on My 05 SANTE. I know its a V-Drive compared to your Direct Drive, but i have plenty of head room. As for Board Racks, I did Mag Swivels and Surf/Wakeboard Racks on each side so they match.
