@John Mcpartland how did you get the tower? What color are you going to paint it, or are you going to leave it green?

Leaving it green, that's why i got it. My old one is black. I like the green with the blue

You swap because of the bolt issue on the 240’s, or another reason? Looks good!

 

[John Mcpartland]

It was really,really cheap andI like the color

Me too. Add some vinyl stickers the same color, or even accent the upholstery a bit and that’d be sharp.

Several of the cushions on our ‘11 have cracked in the seams. The upholstery shop says they could add an inch or two of color in the seams rather than replacing the whole seat, so we may do that. But then you have to do the whole boat so the cushions match.

How'd you get it?

 

[John Mcpartland]

Dealer here. It has a couple scratches on the bottom by the 212x plaque so they warrantied it and got a new one and had this one sitting around and wanted it gone

 

[robert843]

Did the dealer do the install or did you just curious about the process?

 

[John Mcpartland]

I did it. Pretty easy, one more hole to drill since the stock had 2 bolts and this was has 3

 

[robert843]

That new 242X red tower would look sharp on my boat now you got me thinking.

@John Mcpartland Where did you find a tower mirror that mounts to the tower with that long arm? I have seen the short ones but never nothing that long

Seattle Seahawk's colors. I like that combination!

I had it made at samson. I believe they are going to start making them soon. They didn't het this one done until the end of October last year so I haven't been out yet with it

Could a factory AR tower be added easily to a SX 210?

The tower boats have glassed in extra support under the gunnels for mounting the tower. You would need to support it but it can be done.

Yes, the hulls are the same, but the OEM tower would be a very expensive upgrade (new), and these AR towers have some issues.
