Tower on old boat?

[Chris2]

I have a 2000 model Glastron GX 205br 5.0L Volvo. I'm wondering if the hull will hold up to the added stress of a tower without adding reinforcement, if not how hard is it to add the reinforcement needed?
Thanks for the help.

I is always a good idea to reinforce the hull. I used plywood and liquid nails on mine and it made a strong flat surface to mount it to.

Could you post up pics of how you reinforced the hull??

Is 2000 considered an older boat?

If so, that makes my '76 Glastron certifiably ancient.


No, the reindforcement isn't hard, if you can get to the area without a bunch of grief.
