Re: First post! My dad is buying an R6, but we have a low clearance in our boat house. Any advice?
With the tower shown in that pic the bmini top would have to be taken down in order to lower the tower, correct? I think what's being asked is can the tower be lowered like a foot and then the boat be used as normal, water sports etc, and the answer to that question would be a NO... Sorry if I ...

Yes, you can lower the tower and stop at any point if you have the electric version. With the manual tower it’s either up or all down. That said I’m pretty sure you can drive the boat with the tower fully lowered.
Great, thank you. I think it will come down to if we want to be doing that ...

Re: First post! My dad is buying an R6, but we have a low clearance in our boat house. Any advice?
I’ll try to help as much as I can. I’m attaching a picture of our R6 with the electric tower folded down. The anchor light sticks up about 6” above the windshield when the tower is down. In this picture the dealer hasn’t attached the light yet but I think you can get the idea. I hope this helps ...

Any ...
