I've had a Roswell Area 51 tower sitting around for 3 years, too chicken **** to put it on.(like who seriously drills HOLES in a boat?!) Anyone in the GP area do one? Give me a hand? Anyone have a picker or shop crane and we can take a stab at it?

my friend just installed his tower and he said he was a nervous wreck doing so. Also said there was way more to the job than what he thought. Final result turned out nice! Good luck!

I installed one on my nephews boat. Always wanted to drill a nice hole into gel coat, amazing how easy it drills.
Drill twice, measure once or however that works.

Holy cow! I debated between the Roswell and Monster when I put one on my boat. Ended up going with the Monster. Not sure if the Roswell is harder to put on? Because it was actually pretty simple putting the Monster tower on. I did it myself in an afternoon.
