tower on 20'
Does anyone know of a 20' with a half tower?
I have seen many many 23's but not a 20' - is it possible? |

Re: tower on 20'
Are you kidding? Towers are not only possible with a 20, they are seen quite often down here in Florida. I have even seen towers on 18's. The question is, why would you put one on. If you fish calm or shallow water they are more appropriate than if you fish offshore water. Spotting tarpon or other gamefish is much easier. The downside: towers add 200lbs not including one or 2 fisherman. They also raise the center of gravity and increase your moment of roll.

Re: tower on 20'
Thanks alot - I am from Bermuda and now live in Vancouver BC
There are no Seacrafts here but I am bringing one up/ In BDA we only had Seacraft 23's with towers - note you comments on the weight issues which are very valid and I agree, but with one of the newer Ficht engines it may be a viable option. |

Re: tower on 20'
A half-tower would be ok. I don't like full towers on anything less than 22 ft. As far as performance, my 23 has a full tuna tower and does great with the twin engines. high 40's to low 50's depending on the load.
