I have a 2014 195 scarab with the tower and am having an issue with the tower height. To get into our bay we need to go under some low bridges, and when the water level is high we do not fit. Is there a way to adjust the tower to lower another 6". I should be able to remove the light/tow from the top, that could get me maybe 3". Any insight would would help.
Thanks,
Duane

I was able to lower it about 6" by adjusting the cable length (see image below). I have to open the widow let it go all the way down. I was also able to remove the light for a little more "breathing room".

Does yours have the knobs on each side at the bottom? On ours we just unscrew them and the tower folds forward to the windshield...
