Here is a pic. of the Armstrong dive ladder that will be mounted on the new platform. Hoping I can get an adapter, where the ladder can just swing up out of the water instead of unhooking it all the time.

I think 1/2 will be good?? that 3/4 looks over kill, I also would go flush to the frame.

If you have to buy the Starboard they now have a textured one that is like non skid.

How thick is the stuff on the one you have now that you going to sell??

I wish I could have something like that!! But there seems to be something in the way?? ;)

LOL, I'll trade ya mine for yours. Less weight, so you can save on gas. right.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

The thickness on the other platform is 1/2".

Hey, does this mean I cant post anymore brackets here. :-X :-/ :-/ :-/ :'(
 
WOW, it looks great.
I would defently go flush, one less thing to get hung up on when getting in/out of the water, especially with all of your gear.
 
hammer, it looks great, i've always wanted a boat with a back porch. i think if it were mine, i'd put slats of teak. i know that is a bad word to some, but on a platform its great and you never have to do anything to it.

p.s. have you tried to turn the motor yet?
 
Phats, I can tilt the motor up in any direction and it clears the platform completely.
The guy who sold Airslot and I quoted me 3/4 starboard 32x26 at $67.00
A guy in Fl. that sells the non skid starboard quoted me $120.00. for 1/2 non-skid.
Not sure what I will go with until I count my pennies. ;D

Hey, where is REEL, he nagged and nagged about Pics. and I just posted 16 pics. and now he disapeared on me. >:(



;D
 
LOL Stink. ;D
Parishht, I tried and tried, still your credit card number wont work. ;D
Was outside for a few hours stairing and thinking, and try to make a template up for the starboard. No success yet on what the hell I'm doing. :-/
 
You got it Franco, will be hooking back up with him hopefully in two weeks. His rates are low, since he just started his own business last year. His hourly rate is 65.00 an hour, plus 6-bucks a foot for the alum.
 
Great pix, Hammer ... took ya long enuff!! :-* ... that's about the most substantial swim-platform I've seen...

I'd definately go w/non-skid Starboard...1/2" material and only 1/2" overhang would do it for me ;) 8) ...how ya gonna attach S'board to frame? ...

How did ya attach the frame to the transom?...are those THRU-BOLTS?...SPECIALLY AT TOP ??? ... if those are just screws into the transom, it could be a prob ... :-/ ...
 
Reel, will use a 7/32 bit to get the hole started, then simply screw into the alum. with a 3/8. Thats how they mount the hardtops without having to through bolt everything.

On my platform, I through bolted the top and screwed the bottom. I was totally amazed and schocked when we drilled through teh transom. She was purdy and dry. ;D
Hope to get the other side installed in a few weeks. ;D
