Hey everyone, Sorry if this is a little self promotion but I just thought I'd let everyone know that I started my own business. Well technically, I started it last year, but I'm finally starting to ramp up production. I manufacture wakeboard towers and tower accessories. My website is www.assaulttowers.com if you want to check it out. If anyone is interested or has any questions about them, email me at sean@assaulttowers.comI'm based out of Milton, Ontario. Sean

I'm guessing they switched over to Extreme Marine products. Or from them to someone else. EMP has about 75% of the market. Maybe you can remember my company for the next time MasterCraft switches

That's not really the point. Getting my companies name out is what's important. Maybe the majority of the people on CEG can't afford it/don't have a boat, maybe then can afford it. In either case, they might know someone who's been looking for an affordable wakeboard tower.

Exactly. Heck, he educated me. I didn't know what a Wakeboard Tower was until I clicked on his link. Now it'll be in the back of my mind when someone mentions one.

I think that the business will do fine as long as you can swallow the advertising costs. Other than that, if I had a boat of my own right now I would definitly be looking into this. The first time I used a proper tower I was addicted. It almost makes things seem effortless on the water.

Yeah, the advertising costs have already swallowed quite a bit of my money. Although prototypes to prove my 3D CAD drawings were by far the largest cost. I definately agree with what you wrote. Towers are incredible. And not only with more experienced riders, but beginners too. It's easier to pull them up out of the water. The added air time allows the ability to turn that 360 into a 540 or bigger. Although I must warn anyone looking for the cheapest approach to raise the tow point by purchasing a pole to think again. Poles basically eliminates the space in the back of the boat and the strap that goes to the front eliminates the space in the bow. It's not a wise choice. A couple of friends that bought poles a couple of years ago, haven't used them in over 2 years because of this problem, among others (collapsability). Mind you, I was happy to sell them a tower
