to help you out i am in toledo / oregon ( girlfriends ) a lot and also at marblehead ( girlfriends cabin ) alot if that would help you out on picking it up

If mgoblue doesnt go for the aluminum swim platform, let me know. I've got the same boat and looking for the same thing. [email protected]

Had to renew my membership. I'll try to get out to where they are stored tonight and get some pictures.

I sent you an email with some pictures I took tonight. They are a little dusty from sitting around.

The aluminum one is a factory Baja one.

Replied to your email.

Update

Fiberglassed the hull to the deck today, use 4 inch strips of 1708 and staggered the joints between layers. Thing feels rock solid! Really glad I did it. Also getting little things buttoned up on the engine and tranny before putting it back in the boat next week hopefully. Would like to hear her purr by October 1st.

Next step is to get the cabinets installed and start rerigging while prepping for paint.

Not sure what I want to do with paint yet. 3 options.

1. Base/clear -more expensive and don't have any experience laying down clear
2. Single stage with painted graphics- easier to paint and cheaper than base clear, but have little paint lines from taping off different colors
3. Single stage with vinyl graphics

Opinions?

Did you end up buying this swim platform? You asked about it first so you get first dibs but let me know what you decided.

Also you might want to check out a product at home depot for redoing some pieces in the interior. Its way cheaper than the stuff you are using but it is only used for an overlayment. It is bendable though. One of my boats previous owners used it to cover all the natural looking wood in the boat. It turned out pretty decent.
I'll email you some pictures. (cant figure out how to post on here)
Its called Glasliner

Yep I picked up the platform today, I see there is another one in the swap shop, might inquire about that one. I think it was listed under aluminum swim platform?

Got the cabinets started going back in today as well as cutting the piece of cuddy floor and laid a layer of 1708 on each side of that. Planning on glassing that into place tomorrow night.

I think for the first step to the windscreen I am going to reassemble the frame for the windshield and make some templates off of that then start fitting to the boat later in the week. I can see the light at te end of the tunnel of fiberglassing! The windscreen is the last of it.

I emailed about that one and it looked kinda custom built. All round tube and the brackets that mount to the transom were all at the bottom of the lets. Nothing at the top. So for the price I would rather not have to hack it up.
Hopefully somebody else out there has a lead on a swim platform. Anybody.......
