thinking about putting a tower on my h190 (05, 20ft, 5.0) but not sure if it is good for the boat, seems like alotta pressure on the fiberglass when pulling someone. any opinions would be helpful in the decision. Also does any body have one on a simular boat so i can see what they look like? mine is the black wrap with sport graphics but any thing close would still give me an idea, thanks in advance for any help

when we purchased our boat it came with a custom Roswell tower fit for the boat. it's an OK tower i'm guessing one of the earlier ones. now adays i see better designs than ours. i do like that it is black to match the boat. as for stress we have some stress cracking in the fiberglass that was already there when we bought it.

not the wises thing to have done but i've put 3 full grown men on the back of the boat from the tower on inner tubes. talk about a long time to plane out. i'm also at 5000-8000 feet which doesn't help performance anyway.

should be picks in my sig but i have more if interested.

If it's installed correctly with backing plates, you won't have any problems. I had a custom made tower put on my Chapparal and it was awesome - looked like a factory fit and never once had any issues. This is one of those areas where you don't want to let someone "try" to install it - go with a pro.

took this off of the Four Winns site. It's not the same year as yours, but it's a good side-view.
