Not knowing how tall your tower is and the weight of it makes it a little hard to come up with a exact weight of ballast. But I did one for a friend when he put a tower on his and what we came up with was: you would need to add approx 30lbs on each side as far fwd as you can get the weight before the hull shapes inward toward the bow. (The fwd end of the inserted rod storage in the gunnel. ) This helps to provide stability so the tower can't overpower the flat stability.

Hope this helps.
