    Default What tower mirror do you use?

    I have the ptm 100 on my boat. Here is the ptm 140.

    Not sure if I'm spending $200 for the upgrade.

    The 180 is on sale on amazon for $63 with free shipping. Too bad for us Canadians it's $20+ shipping

    I bought mine for 70 bucks ($92.93 tax and delivery in) from Marinemart.ca. Their website is all messed up, I think they are updating it, but I'm sure if you call them you could order one. I have nothing bad to say about this mirror.

    Yup, that's the one. Of course I say I like it, but my wife does all the driving, and she concentrates more on where she's going than on the skier (me) I do get occasionally left in the middle of the lake. All joking aside though it does have a very good wide view, and it goes on and off the windshield easily.

    Ok I will share a wife "spotter" story. So it was just me, a bud and wife. I was pulling my buddy and all a sudden my wife says "down!" so I throttled off and turned around and couldn't find my buddy. We did a couple circles and my heart was skipping beats, I just couldn't understand how he could disapear with a life jacket on. After a couple circles, maybe a minute later (seemed like an hour) my wife amitted she fell asleep. My buddy was safe about 1/8 mile way with another boater. I can laugh now but haven't been that scared on a lake before. I bought a mirror after that.

    That's crazy. mine was when I was riding and I think I was pointing the direction that I wanted my wife to head to with the boat (for deeper water I think). And my 8 year old was watching me and didn't interpret my signals the same and told my wife that "dad wants you to turn the boat around". My wife believed my son and I was like WTF as my wife starts cranking a u-turn out of nowhere...

    But your story tops it big time! And I would Love to hear how the buddy felt as the boat just left him!

    I don't know which one I have, but it works really well. Put it up high and adjust accordingly and it never obstructs your forward view. This is all I really have of it.

    We put the VR140 on last year. I think it makes a big difference. The driver can see the whole wake if they are not sleeping! LOL
