I want to get a tower for my boat and I have come to really like the Titan I, and its 1295, plus 200 more for a custom color. Are there anyother good towers that arent very expensive, Please let me know

Big Air Pylons makes a really sick tower, 900$ and they make it custom to your boat. IMO the best looking affordable tower out there. No creaks, not stress cracks, nothing. Love it.

Im going to have to agree with gary on big air plyons, www.bigairpylongs.com they make an awesome tower, weve got one on our boat. And you cant beat the price.

Monster has to be in the mix too. Just my vote

I dig the fat tubes on the proflight chubby swoop tower.

Wakeair towers are nicely built from Stainless steel, very strong compared to aluminum and the main tubes are single piece so no welds to fail.

a swoop tower style would be my preference

No comparison if you're looking at the Titan 1. By far the best of the towers mentioned. I've had the Big Air tower - solid towers, looks decent. I currently have the Monster. Super solid tower, looks good too. But the Titan looks the best of the 3, and has proven to be the most solid tower to date.

It wasn't an OEM tower for nothing. Although it's also the most expensive.

figure out what you want and take a pic to a metal shop, i had mine custom made from a crappy picture i drew on a napkin. I took it to em&c which makes t-tops and fishing towers for a ton of mfgs. . A guy named bob van gundy the prototype manager took my napkin doodle(and my request for huge beefy backing plater, a nav/anc light on the top,swivel tow point, and prewired and drilled for lights and speakers and made a custom fit tower for my 93 euro , installed it and powdercoated it for $1000 out the door, took him 2 weeks total. Anyway im sure if you get your measurements and call him he can build you one and ship it to you for less than you can find anywhere else.
number is 803-939-4955

I like the titan 1 best, but this is the best deal hands down. http://www.diywake.com/shop/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=70&cat=+Towers

Titan all the way as it’s a great functional tower that is arguably the strongest out there and won't create spider cracks. Folds down w/ one person and fits easily in my garage and the factory cover still works.

Im going to have to agree with the big air pylon tower (but maybe thats because thats what i have)
It is pretty solid but reinforcement helps

I went with the titan series 1 and have been very happy with my decision.

The reason I went with the tower is for 1 reason.

It's a custom made tower for your boat, no drilling or fitting the tower for the boat. It's stainless steel and solid, all for the price of a universal tower.
