Are there any towers on the market that would work and if so has anyone done this?

So glad you found us W..88.

Any pics?

Are you looking to do a wake boarding tower or something for some shade on your 30 footer?

And welcome aboard mate.

Hard to find old stock Cobalt towers, as everybody with an older Cobalt seems to want one. Companies like Samson make ones that are very close to the original Cobalt towers (they made many of the OEM Cobalt towers):

while many other manufacturers make decent towers that are well-regarded and can be installed on a Cobalt, or have old Cobalt (authentic) towers for sale on occasion such as:

Check out Monster Towers, if you can't find, or don't want to pay for factory. I added a Monster Tower to my Rinker a few years back, and it was a quality tower with good instructions. Easy afternoon job for 2 people, and it was easy to fold and put down for travel and storage. Monster has several different models to choose from, depending on your style, and bimini tops that will attach to them as well, and not look out of place.

I don’t have any pics worth much right now. Looking for something that’s better looking than the Bimini top and provides shade.

The issue is the beam. Nothing I have found is wide enough.
