Well, appearance is important, but I'm aiming for the most efficient price/quality/appearance balance I can find.

I have a Malibu Repsonse for sale and it has a Monster tower and I don't care for the looks. I'de rather spend $2000 on a better lookin' tower then $1200 on that one.

Anyone know the ballpark price for the Zero Flex?

The XTP is ~$2,200 and the ND is ~$2,000. (w/o accessories)

It sounds like XTP and Zero Flex may be better than the ND tower.

If that's the conclusion, then what are the differences between the XTP and zero-flex? The XTP looks sharp to me.

thanks,
beatle78

Does anyone have a high res photo of the New Dimension tower on their boat? I'd appreciate seeing that if anyone does. Or even the XTP as well for comparison.

Went down this road last fall myself. Decided on factory zero flex tower because you can use the factory racks which are far better than any other racks on the market. Paid a couple hundred more for the factory tower but felt the extra couple hundred bucks bought me peace of mind with it being OEM and better resale down the road. All 3 are great just gotta pick what suits your tastes, needs and wallet.

Check with your local dealer on the OEM zeroflex. The clamping board racks alone on the 04 and newer models are awesome.

Yes they are. And incredibly expensive. I just put two on my boat and I've been trying to find my left nut ever since.

They are awesome though.

No problem with my ND - perfect fit.

ND w/ board racks - $2800

OEM X-30 tower (bare) - $5800

Kind of a no brainer..... at least for my old boat.
