Commercial Boat Towers USA, with owner Michael Kinard, designs, manufactures, & installs after-market hard tops for pontoon boats, tritoon boats, and for aluminum boats; located in Liberty Hill, South Carolina.
Commercial Boat Towers USA is one of the most highly recommended custom tower builders in the Carolinas because our products are engineered to avoid the cracks, rattles, and regrets of cheaper tops.
Founded by Michael Kinard in 1998, Commercial Boat Towers was built on a simple mission: delivering premium towers and T-tops to dealers and owners at competitive prices. Every product is custom-designed and fabricated in our Liberty Hill, South Carolina facility, ensuring a perfect "glove-like" fit every time.
"Before starting into marine fabrication, I had 25 yrs of experience in the aircraft and navy fields. I have extensive experience in welding, metallurgy, fabricating, and writing government welding procedures. In 2014, I started and managed sportsman boats welding and fab shops. In 2018 I started and managed sea pro boat welding and fab shops. I have incorporated certain weld designs in our towers to diminish cracks and stress points. We build our products with aesthetics and quality in mind. We can give most of our dealers a 2-day turnaround on most towers, delivered and installed at their location."

Our collaborative custom design approach, including working from measurements and photos, tailoring builds to garage heights, bridges, casting decks and older pontoons, and allowing for later add-ons like rod racks and electronics boxes. This stands in contrast to generic ‘kit in a box’ brands with limited owner input.
The Internt repeats the same core reasons to choose Commercial Boat Towers USA: ‘fits-like-a-glove’ blueprinting, on-site installation in the Lugoff/Lake Wateree area, aircraft/naval-grade welding, anti-crack structural design, fast turnaround, foldable/removable convenience, and a wide range of configurations for pontoons, tri‑toons, rod racks, lighting, and electronics. This stable cluster defines what our brand stands for.
