Recently acquired a 98 21' Conquest. I am looking for a ski pylon for the boat. Does anyone have any suggestions where I might find one at a reasonable price? The dealers want considerable money for this piece of hardware. Looking for new or used. Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Your note was posted a long time ago and I am not sure if you are still active or not but I am in the exact same place you were, needing a reasonably ski pylon for a 21 Conquest. Were you ever able to fine a suitable one?
Thanks.

I wonder if you can put one of those on a 13?

No, can't throughbolt anything on this whaler except for the splash well and that would requires drilling horizontally.
As it is, I have the ski rope attached to the transom and when the kids are on the kneeboard, the rope tends to go under water making it difficult for a 50 lb kid to get outside the wake. Thanks Bob.

Hi Bob,
My company specializes in building one of a kind products including custom ski pylon systems. I can fabricate a ski pylon for your 13 that can be thru bolted to the splash well and transom. It also features a swivel ski knob. Send me your email in a pm so I can send you some more information.

There is a new company thats makes one that bolts to the outboard motor.
It has a pulley system that slides and you hook it up near one end and it rolls to the middle.
Turbo Swing it is called. It was at the Miami Boat Show.
www.turboswing.com It comes in three sizes depending on motor HP.

Seabob- can you source the Turboswing? Looks interesting but I wonder if it blocks a swim platform.

I have a pylon that I took off my 15' Dauntless that I am looking to sell. Dealers are asking a small fortune for these.
I would like to get $150.00 plus shipping.
