Once I hear from my accountant on how much I owe this year, I might order the platform, I'll let you know.

I'll be really jealous. I love the looks of the back of a Sea Ray with a double platform, like my buddy's 420. That's ok. We're almost done upgrading this one, then we'll enjoy it for a couple of years before moving up to a diesel. At that point, I see us getting one of those little hard-bottom dinghies with 25 - 50 HP, center console, bimini, trim tabs, GPS, VHF, stereo, and chartplotter like my buddy Tommy has with his 500 (no kidding - trim tabs).
I'm going to have to modify our marina eventually. Since my slip is the last one inside everyone, next to the breakwater, the manager says I'll be able to add another row of pilings to fit a 420, but we'll have to solicit the environmentalists and wait a year or more for clearance to add 2 pilings and move a third one - on an Air Force installation... If I were to get that done early, I could add a swim platform extension, but at that point, I'm probably better off waiting to upgrade.
