FAQ's
Q. Which is the best material, Aluminum or Stainless?
A. Aluminium is the “hands down” choice for boat towers of every type. For a given weight, correctly designed aluminum towers can be made much stiffer and stronger. Stainless steel weighs nearly 3 times as much as aluminum. Stainless steel makes great springs, not a desirable characteristic in boat towers. High end Boat Builders such as Viking, Bertram, Cabo, Hatteras and others equip their boats exclusively with aluminum railings, ladders, hardtop structures and towers because it is the best material choice.
Q. Won’t aluminum corrode in a salt water environment?
A. Aluminum used in boat tower structures is normally finished with a process called “anodizing”. Anodizing is an electro-chemical enhancement of aluminum’s natural tendency to form a protective oxide coating. Anodizing provides a surface finish that is much harder, and much more resistant to cosmetic corrosion than bare metal. Anodized aluminum when given regular washing and waxing will look like “new” indefinitely. Aluminum has been used as a marine engineering material for nearly a hundred years. It is the material of choice for many durable commercial and military vessels, not to mention 100s of thousands of boat windshield systems, outboard motors and outdrives.
Q. Will the Fishing Arch fit my boat?
Because of it’s adjustability the Fishing Arch will fit almost every walkaround, cuddy cabin, or express style boat. It has also been installed on deck boats and pontoon boats. (The Fishing Arch is not suitable for flybridge boats). If in doubt please give us a call at 1300 732 383 or email us with the year and model of your boat. We can quickly tell you if the Fishing Arch will fit your boat correctly.
Q. Can I install the Fishing Arch myself?
A. The Fishing Arch was designed for owner installation and is typically no more complicated than installing rod holders or outriggers, just a few more pieces. If you are comfortable with hand tools, the Fishing Arch comes with an instructional video, and all the backing plates and hardware required for a thru bolted installation. We could also recommend you some installers.
