Found a nice looking tower for older model BU's

I have been wanting to put a tower on my 1995 Response but havent been totally impressed with the looks of most of the towers out there. While surfing around today I found these pics. To me it is a sharp looking tower, flows with the boat well and folds down almost flat. Unfortunately it's $$$ since it's made in New Zealand. Anyway just wanted to share in case anyone else is looking The tower is made by Ology.

That is nice looking, but 3k converts to about 2200 U.S., plus shipping if they even will.

I've looked all over and found these guys as another option, as well:

Around the same price, but they are custom made for each customer, not universal. You send them dimensions, tower height desired, mount points, top or side mount, everything. They will send you a CAD drawing of your tower before they build it for approval. Heim mounts on the corners and foldable. Pretty cool.

They do have a Sporty on their site in the gallery that looks nice, but waaaay too tall for my taste. Customer wanted extended height, and he got it.

Still trying to find a way to retro an XTP or T3 DL6 on mine, but funds are a bit short for now. If I can't, we'll use a pole with a rag top or use DBG if we get to that level.

A very good New Zealand company and a good looking tower aswell, it would be quit different for you to export something from here. We are normally exporting everything from the states.

Dang that thing looks as good as a Titan III (my fav). Pretty cool tower and it looks nice and solid. Is the tubing stainless or aluminum?

EDIT: Found their website....it's aluminum tubing. The Titan still takes the cake with the stainless tubing IMO. I think the one piece hoops on the T3 also make it looks a little cleaner.
