Swim platform 272ls
 
I am looking for a swim platform for my 272ls. Any leads would be appreciated. I will post more details shortly as I plan to redo the boat this winter.

The teak ones? I've got 2

I built my own from 1x4 oak. I trailer my boat only and have indoor storage, so that might not be for you. Mine turned out looking really nice and is way stronger than the teak one. I am a "bit" large at 260 lbs and this thing is really solid.

Hey guys thanks for the suggestions but I think I would like to get my hands on a factory fiberglass one or I may just go with a powdercoated metal, looking for a good deal but want it to look awesome and be functional. Brian I hear you we have a self made platform on there now and it has handled a number of large mammals coming out of the drink!! Lil red my brother just bought a 1980 26' Pantera in great condition. Apparently not many of those built.

sounds like your wanting a 87-92 fiberglass one from a 272 sr1, IMO if you have a 272ls 86 and older I might consider a nice alum job

sorry boys lost my way on here still looking for a swim platform. I will probably go with an aluminum one cuz I like the look but let me know what u got.

Is the 272 the same as a 242? I have a silent thunder I may remove. I was thinking I might go back too wood.

formuladoug 04-15-2014 03:12 PM

I am not sure. I think they have the same beam. Do you have any Pictures?

88242LS 04-15-2014 03:53 PM

exhaust outlet, width is the same

Crude Intentions 04-15-2014 04:13 PM

242 is single right? 272 is twin. Silent thunder wouldn't work. Unless its a twin 242

84 Formula 272 04-21-2014 12:05 PM

I built one last winter out of aluminum last winter to go under my old teak one for support that I will eventually fill in with more braces and powder coat and use when the teak gets to weak and won't refinish well any more !! There are some pictures on New to offshore thread I started it's on a 84 272

GLENAMY 242SS 05-01-2014 12:20 PM

I am looking for one. I have a 242SS, red,. I WANT a Silent Thunder Platform. Willing to trade for stock Red Platform. Let me know about that Silent Thunder for the 242 please.
I am also new to this forum. Picked up 242 SS 1987 454 MAG/330 Alpha One. Needs lotsa stuff corrected/fixed/refurbished nothing too big (yet) but always expensive to bring it to personal strandards/appointments.
