The boat was bought off the showroom floor, the only Outback V they had. The wife loved the colors.
We didn't choose the tower, that's just the one they installed for us. It folds down very easily, remove one knob in the center, pull a small pin next to it and both pieces fold backwards. I prefer the looks of the factory tower but really have no complaints about the Monster. The dealer even altered the cover to fit around the aftermarket tower.
We wanted a v-drive and the Outback was the only one that would fit straight on in our garage. The dealer even brought it to our house (70 miles each way) to make sure it would fit. After the sale he came and picked it up to take it to have the swing tongue installed on the trailer and brought it back once it was finished. With the boat pushed against the back wall the garage door clears the bow with less than 2 inches to spare.
