Finally got my SS arch installed! Winnesquaum Marine hooked me up. Now I just need to:
Get my bunks replaced
Fix the carpet screws
Install my tower speakers
Change out my factory head unit
Wash and wax her
If you're curious, those are Samson Board Racks http://www.samsonsports.com/wakeboard_t ... racks.html
I love my boat :D

Looks good!!

When you say hooked you up what do you mean? Did they do the install? Or just get the arch for you?

Winnesquaum supplied the parts. Harbor Pointe Marina on Lake Martin in Alabama did the actual install. Thanks Sushi. :)

Looks good! Fun doing upgrades on the boat. I enjoy it.

P.S. I would remove the ugly warning stick on the bow. I pulled them all off my boat. I am guessing it is there due to the bow ladder, but they just look ugly and are kind of common sense.

Funny you should say that Brent. Every year I take my boat off the lake and put it in storage. And every year I have to keep it at the house over night. And every year, three weeks to the day I do this I get a letter form my HOA admonishing me for this. Oh well, I realize we need HOA's to protect our property values but sometimes it just seems ridiculous.

What made you go with the arch instead of the tower? I have a H220 and cannot decide, I like them both. Looks good regardless, Dennis

Forgot to ask. How do you like the black pad on your swim platform? Is it uncomfortable in the summer? I'm asking because i live in Texas and I see your are from the south also. Thanks, Dennis

Yeah the mat gets pretty hot. We either spray it with water or just splash water out of the lake onto it. More often the latter since we haven't filled the water tank in months! We went with the arch because I like the looks of it better, I feel like it adds more esthetically and my wife wanted the bigger bimini that came with it.

Nice looking - I have the reverse arch also.....I like the looks of them better personally, plus the bars don't interfere with visibility....like everything else though they have drawbacks too. Since the bars are not in your way at the helm you also have no bars handy to secure a mirror too for towing....no drop down mirror can be used or it interferes with the top, which leaves you the window/window support bracket mount type.

Please let me know how the speaker install goes and where you place them.....i need to put some on mine and think the only option it to stick them on the sides facing out....otherwise I can't us the bimini:(

Overall - i like the reverse arch better and it has no wobble to it at all.

I had to get my front roller replaced when i picked mine up....you may want to do same to keep it from scraping up your boat....cheap and easy to swap out.
