Veeeery slick indeed! Matches the boat beautifully...definitely a top notch job... and well-thought-out.

Ive got some non abrasive grip tape. Just havent put it on yet. Its actually not that slick without it though. The cutouts actually give you some grip.

Thanks guys. I changed the design many times before i was happy. One more change to this one and im satisfied. We made a fully universal type platform that fits almost any single engine boat. Havent done a twin engine platform yet, but it will be similar.

Just curious, how are you attaching this platform? Most have a support bracket that gets mounted attached a foot or so below as well as attaching at the platform. This can make installation on some boats very tricky if not impossible.
