tower alternatives? / fins

are there any "cheap" alternatives to a tower? my boat's rope hook is way down in the water making it tough for starts and maneuverability becomes an issue.
and do you think it would be easier to get around (untill i get something like a tower) to take my lead fin off so i can move my front foot around more easily and guide the back fin for turning and stuff. i wouldent be doing any tricks so landings wont be an issue.
thanks for any help.

dude i've never tried just taking one fin off but i don't think it'd be a good idea., instead of a tower, research pylons, they're no tower but they're the next best thing, and if you're having trouble starting, start off sitting on the dock
