Is this an aftermarket tower?

[haknslash]

Hello everyone I hope all have had a great boating season so far!

It's been a while since I've posted but I'm still in the search for a new boat. I ran across one I'm interested in and it's an 07 SX210 with what looks like an aftermarket tower since I thought SX's only came with the bimini. Does anyone know if this tower is collapsible and if it's any good? Would I be able to use the bimini top extended open and a ski rope at the same time with this tower? Sorry for all the questions but figured you guys would have the answers.

SX = no tower
AR = with tower

That is an aftermarket tower. Here's a pic of that year's SX without a tower for reference

Yes, it's aftermarket. That one doesn't fold. Looks like there is clearance still for the bimini.

Definitely an aftermarket tower...looks like an Origin brand tower....but can't be certain....

Might be Aerial Tower

I think is a Krypt pro air tower, if so it does collapse, those are 2 1/2" tubes, I had one of those towers on my stern drive boat, it was solid.

@Julian nailed it. These are surprisingly well built for the price, with massive 2.25" tubes, nice welds, and they are heavy. Collapsing/folding these is a royal pain.

Well as it turns out I think the guy selling the boat is just a scammer. I doubt the boat even exists. Oh well on with more boat searching. I think I'm just going to stick with a boat that has the 1.8 engines in them as they sound better than the MR1's since they don't scream at such high RPM's.
