Removing tower on 250/252 for winter storage?

[Stealth]

Does anyone know how hard it would be to take the tower off of a 250/252 in the fall to store the boat (8 ft garage door) and then put it back on in the spring?

So from the lack of replies I'm guessing this isn't done often, and likely not going to work?

There was another poster who removed his tower to run some wiring in it but it was for a 21' boat. It is similar to the one in ours though. You need to disconnect the anchor light and take the pins at the pivot point out. Held in with "circlips" and then slide the pins out. Even though the tower kinda feels light, it is not a 1 person job.

interesting, do you think it would be possible to do for winter storage or better to stick with a SX model with no tower? 2 people and 1 hour?

I don't see why it couldn't be done. Other than the anchor light there isn't anything else on the tower for the AR models. I wouldn't make a habit of it constantly but if its for winter storage then why not.
