I have a metcraft tower (I think...) on my 99 Tige... I believe that is the brand that came OEM back then anyways. If anyone still has an oldschool tower like mine you need to check the nylon straps for the board racks. I hit a wave this weekend and one snapped, board dropped down, left a huge gouge in my engine cover and almost knocked one of my girlfriends out... pretty scary situation since I check the screws holding the straps to the top semi-regularly and never noticed any fraying... I think this could happen with any bungee/nylon strap board rack so everyone should beware of the condition of their stuff. Not mad necessarily but definitely was scary almost having a friend get seriously hurt and damaging the boat...
Just wanted to give everyone the heads up, be careful out there!
