I would like to add a wakeboard tower to my 2001 180 Horizon, but do not want to spend $800-$1200 for one. With that being said, I have seen these Skylon Pods (see picture below) as a cheaper alternative. Looks like you drill a base plate into the sub floor and attach the two support arms to the gunnels at 45-60 degree angles. I am wondering if anyone on here has used one of these Pod systems and how it works for them. I am 6'3" and 205 lbs, so I want to make sure it will be strong enough for me. Also, I am wondering how much room it takes up in the interior of the boat. Is it always "in the way"? Any advise will be appreciated!!!
Thanks!
