Does SX hull = S22
« on: July 07, 2003, 06:34:07 am »

Looked at the 2001 brochure. Appears from the mention of Omega, the profile view and the little pics that as far as fiberglass goes, the SX and S22 shared a mold.

I'm going down this track because my tower is misaligned, or the wrong model or something - big twist in the top.

So check out the picture from the brochure that Pete's posted as a background grpahic in the History page. In that friggin picture, the SX tower is twisted !!! Notice the forward tube on the port side is higher than the aft tube, but the opposite is true on the starboard side.

No esta bien.

Here's the pic without the text. It's big, oh well!
I can see what you mean about the tower. It is an early 2001, the later 2001s and 2002s came with a stainless tower, it was noticeably different than the earlier towers. It required different sized rack mounts, so the dia was different.

looks like the tower is twisted, the top section. I think you could remove it and twist it back. Might need re-powdercoating, its kind of flakey on mine.

Gotta love it when the brochure's tower is twisted.

Kinda makes my plight even less comfortable.


Have I told you guys lately that you're gonna LOVE my bimini????
