Yes, it folds right where the round bar sits on the forward facing supports. You have to unscrew the 4 bolts holding on the vertical supports (the part the board racks are on), two on the top and two an the bottom, and once you remove them the tower drops down torwards the back of the boat.

If you didn't get the quick release bolts then you need to use a wrench or socket driver, the quick release bolts are big knob/handle type bolts you can unscrew by hand. The boat was shipped with a tower support that works great for when the tower is down, it keeps it from just resting on the seat cushion and crushing it. If you don't have it you'll probably want to devise something.

I just use a 2x6 across the gunwale which supports the tower nicely and keeps it off the seats

In the shop we have a few 2x4s that have a half moon cut-out so you can brace the towers when folded. I think some of the boats must come with them from Axis with this wood brace in the boat.
