PipeWelders Marine, Inc. manufactures an endless amount of accessories for sport fishing yachts.  Some accessories include PipeWelders outriggers and hydraulics.  Our outriggers have become the standard for many yacht manufacturers because of their reliability and strength.  In most recent years, we have developed SuperRiggers© which have upgraded pipe, cables, and back bars to handle the biggest fish.  In addition, our hydroriggers have been proven a success in tournament after tournament, allowing captains to bring in, lay out, or lay down the outriggers with a push of a button.  Other accessories include our custom masts which are designed with your electronics package and style in mind.  Additionally, we can also manufacture custom swim platforms with hydraulic capability, cockpit sunshades…

Bench Seats

We offer an optional seat mounted on the back of the sunshade for easier operation, or for a guest to be seated when using the tower mounted controls.

Carbon Fiber

Pipewelders offers a complete line of carbon fiber products, from outriggers to the previously fiberglass components of towers. Experimental projects are conducted on the company’s boats and then introduced on manufacturer’s demonstrators, such as the “Hatterascal” GT 60 and custom boat applications where weight reduction and increased strength are the goal.

A Pipewelders tower with Carbon Fiber hardtop, platform, sunshade, dome brackets, light pods, control box and radar pod all composed of carbon fiber produces a significant weight reduction and increase in strength, lowering the center of gravity and reducing stress on the tower while allowing maximum stiffness in thinner composites. This allows styling the tower to match the boat, especially in larger applications.

Fold Down Box

A control box that drops down from the hardtop for the mounting of electronic instruments. This box is available in 3 widths.

Hatches

Hatches are used to allow for air flow around or thru the hardtop.  The larger hatches can be used to gain access to areas above or below the hardtops.  We also offer sliding hatches that function as sunroofs on the larger hardtops and enclosure.

Molded Handrails

Our molded hand rails perform a dual function when used on a express boat. It allows a firm handrail down the side of the boat without the use of tubing, and works as a water diverter to move any moisture back to the rear of the boat.

Teaser Reels

Teaser reels are used with outriggers to lure the fish to the area surrounding the boat. They are mounted in pairs, one for the starboard outrigger, one for the port outrigger. The teaser lines move thru the hardtops to the sides then down to the outriggers. Teaser are used to shake the outriggers giving the baits attached to the outriggers a more lifelike appearance luring the surrounding fish.

We can mount up to two pairs of outrigger in a single hardtop. The door under the hardtop comes in two versions, either a drop down door which swings down under the hardtop, or a sliding door slides up into the hartop out of the way.

We have several sources for the recessed lights under the hardtop. These range from halogen, a single LED,  dual LED  or tri-color LED lights which allow one button changing of all the light under the hardtop. The lights over the console are wired on their own circuit and can be either a single red LED, or have two or three additional colors added to allow for the same single switch changing of the colors. All recessed lights have the option to be dimable.

We also offer several versions of flood lights for area lighting in the rear, front or sides of the hardtop. These can be halogen, HID, or LED floodlights. We have pods that accept these light that can be attached to the hardtop to allow anywhere from one to five floodlights pointing to any directions are are frequently used to light up the cockpit area.

These flood lights can also be attached to the platform on our towers if requested.
