Aftermarket swim platform
 
I have a 1987 272 SR1 with twin 350 mags... It has the silent thunder exhaust system which is also the swim deck itself... does anyone know where i can get a aluminum swim platform like the bajas and cigs have? Or any ideas are appreciated because i want to run the exhaust straight out instead of through that swim deck plus that deck is starting to have a few cracks in it from getting old!

The units from extreme marine are very nice swim platforms. Pricey, but nice..

SR1kid 04-19-2007 10:53 AM

ya i checked with them, but like you said "PRICEY"... but thats how everything is when you own a boat! I may just have to break down and spend an extra grand or 2, i think it will be worth it!

SR1Kid - I see that you are in Tulsa also. If you end up taking the silent thunder off of your boat, I'd be very interested in it!

zdek- If i end up getting a custom swim platform i will for sure send you an email... It may be a week or two before i decide to spend that extra money though!

SR1kid 04-24-2007 10:39 PM

just out of curiousity... how much did you pay for that? i really like it!

SR1kid 04-25-2007 11:27 AM

pshannon- since you obviously took the "silent thunder" off of the boat... what did you do for mufflers?

GRUNION 05-06-2007 11:38 AM

Yeah how much are they?

pshannon 05-07-2007 12:44 PM

It was about $2k and some change,No mufflers just straight thru hull,sounds great....

GRUNION 05-07-2007 02:24 PM

Here is a sneak preview of what it might look like.
A few days ago me and 2 of my friends held the platform against the transom, just to get an idea of wat it might look like. I wont be able to install it until spring so it might take some time before I can post some "real" pics of it.:cool-smiley-011:

88formula223 12-11-2007 07:21 PM

I cant wait to get one.......looks good keep us posted

Great platform looks good just make sure you spend the xtra money for the non-slip tape on it when that thing gets wet you better hold on I know first hand.
