Tower Price

How much $$$ am I looking at for the install of a factory mini tower, Bimini top, and speakers for a 2009 TT 197 Master Craft? Ball park figures....

I actually talked too two different dealers today. was quoted anywhere from 5500-6500 plus install for tower and two swivel board racks on an 07-11 tower for my maristar.

I wish I could find a used one.

Did they confirm that it will fit a Maristar?

They knew that I was looking for a tower for my 06 maristar 215. Which is the identical boat to an X15. So am I missing something?

Thanks,

Double that and you could buy a decent early to mid-90s Maristar.

I did the exact same thing on my 06 197. Mini tower was $3500 plus $700-800 install. Bimini was $800, tower speakers were around $600 for two (on sale). Amp was $400. I installed the bimini and stereo gear myself. The install was a lot of work. Not sure I'd do it again. Figure same price for install labor as the cost of the gear.

Don't forget the tower mirror and board racks. I spent about $500 for those but I got the racks for next to nothing. Rack can run $400-$500 easy.

If you are talking factory, OEM 08-Present Mini Tower(Not ZeroFlex or ND), you are looking at around $7,500. I looked into it when they changed the tower style. It was about $3,700 for Tower, 1,500 for Racks, $800 for bimini and $1500 for speakers.

They are very proud of their towers...

I had no idea towers had this price point.

On moleson10's - Very Nice & Tandem Axle. - A 4x safety factor for sure.
That's probably the exact setup I'd need for the 209.

Bimini for sure. I'm pretty fussy - so I could do the install -
Restoring WWII Aircraft is the other hobby.

Could I ask you for part numbers to log in to find the same.

Preferred Source?

Thanks

If I remember correctly, the mini tower on our '08 214 was listed on the option sheet at $5500, and that was without a bimini. I can't remember if that included the racks or not.
