That looks amazing. Wonder why they wouldn’t make a larger size like a 6. For any of you that have one, is it possible to get 2 jackets on each spot?????

Depending on the jacket you can get 2 into 1 slot. Comp vests no problem.

Can you all confirm that this is basically "fixed" once installed on the tower? Basically, no way to rotate or narrow the profile for entering the boat in a narrow slip?

It's fixed, you can leave the bolts semi loose so it moves, but it's pretty narrow, my wakeboard racks stick out further from the sides.

Has anyone found the perfect spot for mounting these? Hard to tell from the pictures exactly where you are clamping it. Mounting it above the pivot point on the tower looks like it would prevent the tower from folding all the way down but mounting below the pivot point looks like it might be in the way of the wakeboard racks. Thanks guys!

This is where I put mine. I wanted it out of my line of sight but not dragging the jackets in the water either. They might get splashed here occasionally, but they were wet before anyways...

They're not as low as the first image makes it look either

Did you remove the wakeboard rack on the side you mounted the jacket rack-it on?

Nope, I have the jacket racket near the top of the tower. We just push the vests out of the way and stick the board in the rack.
