New swim platform

[madurodave]

just spent 1450. on this little beauty. Adds 24" and enhances the safety of my rig. Thought waiting until this time of year would help on the price but no dice.... Oh well, money well spent. I just have to install. Can't wait to take the boat out this spring with this mod!

Very nice.

I love big swim platforms.

When we were looking for our bowrider that was a huge part of our decision. Our boat came with a 36" X 80" platform which was at least 12" longer than any competitor boat.

Enjoy.

Re: New swim platform

Mine came with a platform. Really does make the boat feel bigger and helps keep the cockpit dry - stand on it to dry off after swimming, tubing or skiing. You are going to really appreciate having it. Money well spent. Good luck.

Re: New swim platform

Nice! I have been very impressed with the platforms people have gotten from that site. I think they are reasonable for how awesome they are.

Re: New swim platform

Nice, that's the company we have decided on to make our platform.
The only problem is they have never made one for our boat so we have to make a template for them. Ours is gonna be around $1600. Hope they are as good as we think they are.

Let us know how installation goes. We are considering having an auto restoration shop do ours.

Re: New swim platform

I had a platform made by them for my boat about 6 years ago.They did a great job!!! I dealt with the owner and he made it to my specs.They are very trustworthy people.I mailed him a template from the teak platform that I removed,sent him some pics and he made me a 10ft wide platform and extended it further out than the teak one went.He included longer support rods and hardware.He made the platform and didnt ask me for a dime until he was ready to ship it.I highly recommend them as I have here on several occasions.Charlie

Re: New swim platform

That will be an awesome addition to your boat.
Just watch that when you take it it out for the first time and you cut it sharp that it doesnt try and cut into the water.

Re: New swim platform

We have one of those on our Larson, we can put lounge chairs on that thing! When we beach several of us can be found hanging around or on it and I can put my chair and all my fishing gear on it. We also have a nice 4 step ladder on the back of it. We got lucky, the PO had just had it installed before we got it! On a 22 foot boat, it sure does add some length though!

Re: New swim platform

That's just great, now there's another thing I want for my boat. I have a pretty big swimstep now, but maybe with this I can fit a sleeping bag on it...
