I have the Atlantic tower in a box-- I will recomend--very well built and very stable--good fit and I think looks great on these boats. I have added 4 pole holders up top and am working on a flip up stern light and radar. Here are a few pictures. If you have more questions of me and this arch--just ask!

Wow! Looks great! thats def my future rig. AT's arch does look perfect. so is there any play or rattle in the arch?

No play and no rattle at all---and apparently the supports they supply are plenty as I do not even have any stress cracks after 2 years--and I tend to run hard out in the Pacific Northwest waters.

Here are some more pictures with the 8 pole holders.

good to know! gonna have to save some cash. did you install on your own or have it done?

I did do the install myself-----

But measured 4 times and cut once!!!

On the pieces mounting to the sides of the boat--I taped the pipe and then cut it with a pipe cutter(roller wheel) for a clean straight cut. Then they epoxy on to the ends plus you drill and tap holes for bolts as well--They have engineered these well--I will be mounting my stern light up there and a radar(plate is there) and there are 2 other plates on top of arch for antennas if you want, plus I like the flat plates on the side--I will be building some hangers there for gaffs and possibly some outriggers.

I get alot of compliments on it--most think it is a custom.

I looked at different arches and custom builds and me builds--It was worth every penny!!

sweet! I know who to bother when I have build questions! Boat looks great with the arch, wise choice...:beer:

How tall do these arches stand above the gunnels? I have a 14' vhf antenna, and would like to mount it on the gunnel and support it with the arch. I cannot remember where Shakespeare Antennas said my support needed to be. I want the antenna as high as possible. But i do not want to have to stand on the gunnels or climb on something to get rods out.

You will have to pull up the AT website to see- but I cut about 3 inches off the upright hieght on mine and you can see where it is on the stand up top.
The bridge for the arch you order the width you need--they have 3 widths to help with different widths.

You can also mount the feet(supports) at any angle you want.

With the hard top they made to the boat spec's, all Ihad to do was the height and I took like 6 inches off. I also chose to mount to the floor instead of the sides for more support.

Unless your doing alot of running at night of have to deal with alot of fog radar is pretty useless in my opinion.
