Re: Active Thunder 43 ?
I was ok with the tube platform on my 37 A.T. I thought it looked good. I later Prefered the integrated on my Nortech 4300. The problem when you get a boat of some size is the platform is somewhat high out of the water, which means you have to add a ladder. By adding a tube type afterwards, which is mounted below makes it easier to board with out a ladder, especially with the grab handles provided. Also a little more protection. Works great for me. Jeff

Jeff,
I would of done the same thing as you. The Nor-Tech's platforms are very high out of the water for swimming....I also has a friend hurt himself of the back of a 45 Sonic because the platform was too high...You can move a bolt on for safety but not one molded in... When I am ready for a 43, maybe Pat and Jay can build me one without or I will just bolt another one like you...Nice boat...can wait to see it on Jan 20th...

I had the 33 up there for a year before I produced it. The 43 will go up next week.
I might try and most the blue-prints. Or if nothing else I can upload them to the website and post the link. I know we have size limitations here.
Call me if you have any other questions!
Thanks, Pat
