Its for my racks, that are also being made, they will slide on to it. Then they can swivel and lock with a pin. I will be able to swivel them around in to the boat to get a board offf

| I came in here to make fun of you, but that looks pretty nice, nothing bad to say. Cept maybe that your tower might rip off the fiberglass, Ive seen it before, if the boat doesnt have supports where the tower goes, it'll tear right off the boat, good job and good luck!
