          Very nice. Stick a tower on it and you've got one awesome wakeboarding boat.

          Well, it's still an awesome wakeboarding boat even with out the tower. But the tower would make it better. hehe.

          Again, very nice.

              Thanks for the complements everyone. I am planning on putting a samson tower or something like that on it. I think for this season we are going to just get a pylon extention to cut down on startup cost. Then in a couple of years after our skill levels and bank levels come back up we will get a tower.
              I have a couple or things I need to do to the boat to get to 100% and I would like to take care of that bofore putting a tower on as well. I am going to be giving it a complete tune up (Plugs, Wires, Cap, Rotor, Coil, Belts, Fuel Filter, Oil Change, etc...) plus the carb is leaking a little so I am going to rebuild that. There is a small soft spot right in front of the pylon so I am going to fix that and replace the carpet this winter.

              Once all this is done I will have a perfect running and very solid boat to add on to and will probably put a tower on then. :grin:

                WOW! That does look very clean, inside and out!! Sweet color! A powder coated tower to match would look great on there!
                ENJOY!

                  You might wanna see about fixing the floor before the pylon is added. A ton of leverage + a soft spot = BAD NEWS.

                  hehe.

                  And I recommend http://www.newdimensiontowers.com

                    super nice, consider a New Dimension tower for it. It would look sweet with the FCT style tower.
                    Ummm, I\'ll take the REAL 210 please. Thanks.

                      Do either of you have any pictures of a 2001 with a New Dimension tower on it?

                      A question about the pylon it is connected to the stringers right? Why does the floor effect it? The stringers are still fine it is just a spot in the floor.
