First impressions. This thing is huge. Lowering the tower is hard to do. Very heavy and awkward. Gas assist would have been nice. I have to lower the Bimini and tower, then balance the Bimini just right too fit it into my garage. Stereo needs amp asap. Gonna take it out Sunday and run it around. Already added magnums, fangs, and ex locks. I have the Stolz bow roller but boat is too tight to roller to install now. I will install at river Sunday. I just wish they could have made tower/Bimini combo easier to work with.
