looking for swimplatform?
 
Looking for some ideas or shops that can fabricate custom aluminum swim platform or even used platform in good condition. For the kids, I have a 26' custom performance boat similiar to pantera and superboat, has to mount high , above exhaust tips. Preferrably central jersey shore area. thanks vic :chimp: :chimp:

I did mention that B-bracket never called me back, what I forgot to mention is that I did speak to Jim at Extreme Marine and he was very nice and professional. :drink:

Re: looking for swimplatform?
 
I actually just talked to Jim....his price is $1400.00. Extreme is at $1,575 right now for theirs.

Jim's is 22" and any larger would be custom and more money.
Extreme's is 26" with grabhandle built-in for the price above. They also make a 31" platform.

His is only $150 cheaper, but his swimstep is also smaller.

I agree, but he wasn't going to negotiate, so I am buying from Extreme.

Nice Cig, the swimstep looks good also. :D
