| 37' Willis Marine |
| Willis Marine /

| When PBT was given the green to install the tower on the NEW 37' Willis Marine Walk-around, we were extremely excited.

We had to mount the forward and aft legs into very small fixed areas, installed the rod holder rack above the hardtop and installed our smaller new LED spreader lights. The hardtop received a fixed stationary radio box, painted underside, bomar hatch and hardtop mounted outriggers. As for the standing platfrom, we cut in our easy access openings, installed our smaller single coupler box and mini light pods on the underside. Finally we tightened up the ring to accept our smaller control box and sunshade. The owner, captain and Willis Marine were very pleased with the look/design and the quick install of the tower. |

| 37' Grady White |
| Grady White Boats /
37' - 0" |
Installing a tower on the 37' Grady White while integrating our tower with the factory hardtop and frame was quite the challenge. First, we had to create custom forward hardtop pads for both the top and bottom of the hardtop. Second, we had to add a custom truss in between the front legs below the hardtop but also having to miss the forward windshield door that opens up so you could get to the front of the boat. We also had to create spacers between the hardtop and our perimeter rail as we were unable to bolt our perimeter rail directly the hardtop fiberglass as you will see in the photos.
Some other items we installed on the tower were a custom radar mast, rod holder mounted on the inner ladder legs, rod holders behind the tower sunshade seating, (2) rod holders off the side of the tower ring and 31'-2 spreader Rupp outriggers.
On the platform we installed LED spreader lights and LED down lighting. |

| 42' Express Tower |
| Viking Yachts /
42' - 0" |
| With all the newest features on the 42' Viking Express, like the lift up mezzanine we had to re-engineer the aft ladder section of our tower so that it would not interfere with their mezzanine. As you will see in the photos, we twisted the inner ladder leg to be parrallel with the boat forward to aft. Thought it may look awkward, it functions real well when climbing up the tower. We also installed on this 4' gap tower, LED NAV lights, tri-colored LED lights, mini LED spreader lights, easy access fiberglass in the platform fiberglass and 31'-2 spreader Rupp outriggers. |

| 42' Invincible |
| Invincible Boats /
42' - 0" |
| PBT was given the opportunity of designing, building and installing the most custom tricked out tower package ever installed on a outboard style boat. Mr. Leon and his highly experience team had a very detailed list of ideas and options they had to have designed into the ultimate tower for their fishing style. Together we spent numerous hours in CAD design to develop a super clean look with curved forward legs and bracing, along with our signature curved fiberglass parts. One new feature was a molded sealed kite locker with shelves on the underside of the hardtop, followed by a molded electronics wedge and recessed electric teaser reels with remotes to the tower control box. The upper end of the tower was designed with a full complement of electronics including a 12” Garmin display, night vision and search light controls, full engine system and bow thruster joy stick. For the Miami style of fishing, we also welded two rod holders onto the bench seat backrest, for the team to be able to quickly cast to tailing Sailfish. Another nine rod holders were welded throughout the tower for storage and the ones on the aft main tower legs have integrated steps for ease of climbing the tower. We also designed a six holder rocket launcher into the deck live well for the perfect live bait set up. Another trick feature, because this team tournament fishes in extreme conditions, we molded in a drip ledge aft on the top, so the crew sitting on the mezzanine will not get soaked with water. Five LED spreader lights provide bright lighting for their night fishing trips, along with tri-colored lights for accent. To finish off the ultimate fishing machine, we installed 28’ single spreader riggers on the hardtop, to provide the spread this team needed for all their trolling in the Bahamas. |

43' Release Boat Works Walk Around
"Sting Ray" |
| Release Boat works /
43' - 0" |
Release Boat Works and PBT teamed up to design a Marlin style tower for their new 43' Walk Around for a customer who wanted a very Comfortable tower for fishing and diving. The belly ring area was enlarged to provide a real nice L shaped bench seat with extra padded cushions and backrests to sit (4). A full lounge to the Port side to relax & enjoy the sites all day. For fishing, PBT provided a 65" control box with pod style single lever controls and recessed boxes on each side to house all of their electronics and monitor displays. While looking aft at the baits or fighting a fish the aft backrest removes and slides into storage pins under the seat. The tower sunshade provides cover for the entire upper area of the tower and holds the radar and electronic antennas. The 34'- 2 spreader outriggers were mounted on the hardtop to allow the angle to move 360 degrees around the entire boat while fighting a fish.
PBT and Release are currently working on (2) more custom projects. Check this summer to see the 46' Express sporting her 5' Gap PBT tower. |

The whole forward section of the tower frame (fwd legs & perimeter rail) is the original pipe work from the hardtop frame. We also used the existing hardtop cutting out new ladder openings in the back, put on a new radar pod, cut a teaser door and wire track in and gave it a whole new paint job.
We also powder coated the whole tower frame and bow rail per the customer request. It came out beautiful. |

This 7’ gap tower fit perfect to the angled and curved lines of this Spencer. In working closely with Capt. Ron, we designed in our 60” belly ring, with center jump seat, so he could lock himself in with comfort on rougher days. His 12” Garmin display is recessed & protected in our curved control box. Other features include 5 LED spreader lights, Recessed US 15 HD reels recessed into the hardtop with swivel roller tips to provide the ultimate pulling power. The final part of the project was to install 43’ Rupp outriggers at just the right angle to insure the ultimate layout for their bait positions.

"Full Throttle" |
| F&S Boat Works /
64' - 0" |
This speedy 64’ express “Full Throttle” that was built by F&S boat works was quite an exiting project to work on. From the beginning we knew this boat was going to run over 50 knots, so we worked closely with Jim Floyd to make sure every mounting point for the tower was reinforced and built with the most high tech materials available. In working with the F&S team and their 3D CAD models along with our 3D tower designs, we were able to set the exact location of every brace and pad, before the boat was built. Making it very efficient for the builder The 6’ gap tower was built using polish pipe with 3” front legs and 2 ½” pipe for the aft legs. This really streamlined the look of the tower as we built around the larger pipe on the boat. The tower received (5) spreader lights on the underside of the platform, tri-colored LED lights, hydraulic outriggers mounted on the hardtop , our 63” control box, which fit the large 15” Garmin display, (12) rod holders on aft legs and rocket launcher between inner legs and blacked out the upper section of the tower.

PBT was on the road again to North Carolina to install a new custom tower package for AVID billfish angler Jose Valdes Jr. on his new 66' Spencer "Mojito". PBT worked closely with Jose and his crew to design the ultimate 9' Gap tower. Our pipes, braces and fiberglass parts were all curved & contoured to provide a perfect fit to the curved and angled lines of this Spencer. All of the fiberglass parts were built using carbon fiber and the (2) teaser reel brackets were custom designed to slide down on tracks from inside the radar pod to below the hardtop to provide Capt. Tito with total control of the reels & lines. From push buttons at the helm, they can control the 48'- 4 spreader hydraulic outriggers so they can be laid out to provide the team with the perfect bait spread. (6) Aft tower leg rod holders were set to the exact height and angle that the crew requested. PBT is very proud to have worked with this awesome team and closely with Spencer Yachts on this project.
When you see "Mojito" in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic or St. Thomas, take a close look at the details of this impressive tower. |

69'c Spencer Yacht
"Da Bait" |
| Spencer Yachts /
69' - 0" |
PBT was back in North Carolina in April to install a custom 9' gap tower package on the first 69' Spencer "Da Bait" for avid Billfish angle Jeff Cohen and Capt. Curt Lind. The boat spends most of the year at Los Suenos and the remaining time in St. Thomas, So Curt spends much of his day in the tower. To accommodate all of his needs up top, we installed a dedicated pair of electric teaser reels under the buggy top, offset the wheel & controls to the STBD side. This allowed us to provide him with a large recessed electronics box to hold various units including 12" display, plus CAT engine displays. To eliminate glare from the sun, PBT painted the entire buggy top frame and fiberglass underside Satin Black. The final custom piece was a wrapped belly band cushion for extra padded comfort. With the various size tackle this customer needs for fishing throughout the world, they required an additional rod storage, which PBT molded into the hardtop to hold (10) rods & reels plus gaffs. Also designed into the hardtop was a recessed electronics box, recess opening to hold (4) electric teaser reels and a Satin painted underside. Rupp's 48'- 4 spreader hydraulic outriggers were installed to provide the ultimate spread, along with (6) rod holders on the tower aft legs. LED spreader lights and tri colored accent lights provided bright lighting throughout the tower.
When you see "Da Bait" in Costa Rica and St. Thomas, take a close look at PBT's curved pipes and contoured fiberglass parts that provide a perfect fit to the Spencer styling. |

PBT traveled to Wanchese, NC to Install an ultra custom 13” gap tower on the largest build to date at Bayliss Boat Works, the 84’ “Orion”. We worked closely with the owner Mr. Healey, Capt Justin and Bayliss in the development of the tower not only for aesthetics but functionality as well.

The aft tower legs were custom angled at 12 degrees to make climbing this massive tower super comfortable. We also created a dual flip up seat system with foot rests for the owner who likes to spend a lot of time in the tower. Another new custom item that we worked with Capt Justin was the aft electronic display inside the radar pod just aft of the teaser reel lid cavity. This would allow the captain to be able to see his sounder and charts while looking aft into the cockpit and not having to turn around.

| Jim Smith /
105' - 0" |
| PBT has completed alot of work for all different sizes of yachts, but this 105 jim smith was no small feat. We started off with very detailed CAD designs for the hardtop and arch frame as well as the custom bow rail. Once these items were approved by the owner, captain and electronics company we started to move forward. But in the mean time, our welders/fabricators started building on site all of the custom railings, window railings and each custom ladder. We even built railings down in the engine room per jim smiths request. After everything was fitted to the boat and installed, it revealed some very detailed work by the PBT crew that would make any owner/captain happy to have us work with them. |
