Wake up dude,

No that wasn't me. I'm down here in Texas with ag4ever. My boat is actually blue and white -
there is no gray. Also, I don't have that 02' Ford anymore. I traded it in on an '06 Superduty to match the boat and to hopefully avoid the first year run of the new 07' 6.4 twin turbo diesel!! The 06's came out way early just
for this reason. I had a 2006 in June of 2005 - go figure.
Have a great rest of the summer,

Ken

Why did the 2004 226 models have a tower with the pulling point mounted about 12" back with a loop welded on, and now they do not?

Jonfo,

I believe they just redesigned the tower to make it look better. I hated that loop on the 2004. When I saw the 05 tower at the boat show, I was really pleased to see how good the tower looked now. The head tech at the dealer also said something about people hitting their heads on the extra loop part but that thing is still pretty tall. Maybe someone else can chime in if there is a real reason it disappeared.
