Further committed to safety on the water, Aerial Wakeboarding has partnered with Attwood to produce a wakeboard tower tow-point navigation light that is certified by the U.S. Coast Guard. This compact, fully sealed white LED light is designed for pleasure craft up to 39.4 ft (12 meters) and draws only 1.8 watts at 12VDC - the lowest power draw of any 2 mile 360 degree light and is rated for 50,000+ hours of use with a 5 year warranty. more
You should never tow an inflated towable from a wakeboard tower. The amount of force could damage or break a wakeboard tower, lead to damage of your boat's fiberglass hull and possibly injure someone. Towing an inflated tube or towable is very different than towing a wakeboarder. There could be significantly more drag or anchoring force than a wakeboard tower was designed to handle. [links]
Each Airborne wakeboard tower is precision crafted using the best materials like resilient 2.25 inch diameter high tensile 6061 T6 aircraft aluminum tubing, are precisely shaped using expensive machining equipment manned by the best in the business, feature beautiful welds and easy to clean mirror finish resulting from hours of painstaking polishing. An optional high quality multi-layer black powder coated finish is available for no additional fee.
In fact, even factory installed wakeboard towers found on the most expensive wake boats don't allow you to tow tubes. They all have warning labels that specifically state not to otherwise it will void your warranty. If an aftermarket wakeboard tower manufacturer claims their towers are strong enough to pull towables, we would still advise you not to.

Aerial’s innovative mounting feet swivel during the install to accommodate any hull’s surface angle. They also feature a superior thick one bolt mounting system for easier installation, greater strength and better foot-to-hull weight distribution when torqued down. Some other wakeboard tower manufacturers use up to 4 thinner bolts per mounting foot(16 total) to secure the tower to the fiberglass hull. By drilling several holes in a small area, the fiberglass becomes weaker which can lead to spider cracking and even breakage from the repeated weight transfer exerted from the wakeboarder, to tower, to mounting feet. When mounted and tightened down, Aerial’s circular feet evenly distribute the weight transfer across the contact surface and greatly reduce the stress on your boat’s fiberglass hull. more
All wakeboard towers easily fold down to accomodate vertical clearance restrictions. All are backed by an awesome 5 year manufacturer warranty. All models including the Airborne feature an adjustable universal fit that can fit almost any boat within a range of beam widths(Airborne fits 76-108”). Installation is very easy for the average do-it-yourselfer and takes 3-5 hours. Over 90% of our customers install the wakeboard tower themsleves using a basic set of tools.
