Here are a few pics of the tower so far. I bendt up all the aluminum for the surround and the legs on to the console and seat next

I also picked up my controls a got a set of morse controls from the 60's at a marine junkyard they were in great shape except that the chrome was peeling off so i sand blasted off the chrome and i started to polish the solid bronze body they are going to look mint.



Does anyone have any pics of there towers control,wheel and dash setup?

I just finished my tower this past weekend. I had a 40 inch box with the space for the compass but it was too small for me with the yamaha dual binnacle so i went with the Birdsall Large Control box.

Local tech schools or community colleges often have night courses on the subject. You could be proficient in no time

But you have to TIG aluminum, don't you? And isn't that much more difficult/expensive?

Great work by the way! Wish my 25' Grady had a tower, the view from the hardtop is sweet.

Looks good !
I've been watching & looking for a while. I was hoping to see Dale's go on soon so I can get some ideas.
I went ahead a few weeks ago.
Dry fit this week, and will be installed this weekend.
