Wake board tower install

[Svalenz03]

Does anyone know if I can add a OEM Factory Wake tower from a 2022 AR190 to a 2022 SX190? You help would be greatly appreciated

Can you compare the internal structures first to make sure that the SX has the proper backing installed in the fiber before you start cutting holes? Otherwise yes, dimensions are the same and there's nothing special about it. You could even wire up the tower light correctly I would think.

i didn't dig much, but at yamahsportsplaza prices....looks around $6k for the factory unit and bimini.
would a trade-in for a tower model boat make more sense?
or maybe from a salvage boat?
this is old thread and from previous design?... but they do turn up

I was thinking that the hull from SX & the AR were the same and only difference was the tower and seating configuration…..I’ll check the mounting location for support

Hulls are the same, but you want to check the tubs. Hopefully for your sake, Yamaha doesn't make one tub mold for non-tower boats vs. tower boats. You should be able to take a speaker out or look up from the seats with a phone and see additional backing where the mounts will need to be cut.
