T500hp, what i'm thinking is of doing is making a two piece system that goes under the cushions to raise them up even with the lip, so it goes even with the extension...I can't wait till it gets a little warmer so i can pull the boat out and start the project..........lots of pics to come

If it works for you, I used 1 inch (maybe 1.5) for the legs of the extension. I mounted flushscrew in type bases on the bottom of the extension and another set on the top of the "feet". This allowed the legs to be completely removed by just unscrewing them. The feet were round cut plywood with an inch or 2 cushioning so they wouldn't hurt the seats.....I latter changed them to longer legs and moved them to run down to the floor.

Your swimplatform looks just like mine, and it already has anti slip finish on it. Doesn't yours?
