Hello to all, I am new to the site and so far it looks to be a wealth of knowledge. Quick question, my 03 220 sundeck is in need of a swim platform ladder replacement. I bought one that should work but after removing the old one it appears as though metal is below the fiberglass. Does anyone know if this is a plate and how big it is? My new ladder holes don’t line up so I’ll need to install new hardware. If the metal is big enough I can drill and tap the new holes. Any input would be great. Thanks I’m advance. Rob

So after crawling back through the engine compartment with a flash light, I was able to see that it’s not one plate but rather two backing strips. Unfortunately, mine are spaced too far apart for the new ladder. Back to the drawing board.
 
Is the ladder missing? If not, the ladder OEM GG Schmitt has replacement parts to fix it.

the kit for mine was L08E3105-BLK

Thanks so much for providing that information. I had read somewhere else that these parts were no long available. I still have the old ladder but I’m hoping to possibly have a few more steps, the kiddos have a hell of a time getting aboard.
 
What year and model is your boat? Thanks again for the help.

They have the parts, but you have to call them. They don’t put everything on the website. Real nice people.

Perfect, I’ll be giving them a call today. Thanks for your help.
 
Mine is an 03 220 Sundeck
Very cool, we love ours. Only issue we’ve noticed is some small cracks in the floor gel coat right at the transition from floor to the side.
 
We love ours too, always get compliments on looks and how well laid out it is.

For the spider cracks, you can call/email Sea Ray with your Hull Identification Number (HIN) and they will give you your gelcoat color. Once you have that, a company called Spectrum Color and they can send you a pint of gelcoat to match everything
 
Nice, that was something I was worried about, trying to match the color. Thanks for all of your help, I really appreciate it.
