If you want to save a few bucks and get the same or better then call J. Kruse 573-302-1380 at Lake of the Ozarks. Custom made for your boat and any color you want.

Any color and size. They can also coat for salt water use.

I made my own swimplatform. ordered the metal and had a friend that was fixing alum. heads weld this for me then grounded the welds then sanded then buffed it out. then had it powdered coated clear.

I bought mine 2 years ago for my old boat from Mike. it was 1200 powder coated and the top was non-slip. It fit perfectly the first time and the welds and construction were top notch! Mike has done platforms for just about every boat out there and knew my transom angle and everything. I had him angle mine up slightly so it was level while in the water. here's a pic

Ah, Yes!
I forgot about the nicest 28' Cig that I have seen to date. I remember that the purchase price was very attractive.
As for the platform, I like the angle compensation so it is level.
I might have to steal that idea, if you don't mind.
