My H180 came equipped with a wakeboard tower but no racks for the boards which would be a great help since passenger and cargo space within the 180 is a bit... limited. Anyway, determined from a post here that XTP manufactures the tower on my boat. Googled them and found that they are also the tower supplier for several manufacturers, including Moomba, and that they recently paired with Monster Tower. On the MT website, you can order XTP accessories, including racks. The racks for my tower, which has an oval crossbar, are $325 for two pairs (that is, one for each side of the tower, carries a total of four boards) plus s/h. Great racks, no doubt, and a perfect match but I cringed a bit about spending that much - especially since I just dropped $550 on the 20 hour service and really don't need two pairs.
Anyway, the reason for the post: I found a vendor on eBay, "Lip," which sells a single pair designed for Moomba towers with an oval crossbar for $99 (and $15 for s/h). There wasn't a lot of detail on the vendor's eBay page, but since Moomba = XTP = Four Winns, I took a chance and ordered a pair and sure enough, fits like a glove and a great match on the finish. Plus I saved a bunch and the product was shipped quickly.
Wanted to share the experience here in case anyone else is looking for racks for their FW tower and wants to save a few quid, what with fuel prices approaching unreasonable and all. Cheers

Try DIY Wake. You can even get the rotating racks for easier access. I bought my after market rack for my kneeboard, and it's a perfect match for the factory (monster/XTP) tower board racks. Decent prices too.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't read your whole post before reply. Not a bad price. These guys are a good place too.
