I'm looking for any lessons learned by others or tips for a good installation of a Monster Tower on a Stingray 195 LS. Plan to put in next month. Any ideas you can offer would be great.}

I did this on my old bayiner 2 years ago. Drill your holes in reverse with a good bit. Also lay masking tape down before you drill, it will help reduce splintering

Measure and re-measure before drilling.

If it's a runabout do a dry fit and make sure the center window will clear the tower legs while opening/closing.

I like to put the back part together too and hold it up to the boat so you can make sure it folds into the boat the way you want it to.

After you mark your holes make sure there's nothing behind where you will be drilling.

The above advise is good too.
