That looks great.I'm pretty questionable about no support poles though.That's a lot of leverage with full size adults.hell, they make them all these platforms all the time so they know better than any of us would.I guess as long as you keep an eye on the bolts to see if they pull or crack over time then she'll be good.
I certainly like the idea of no holes under water though.
it is so funny SeaRay is doing away with the swin platforms on the new boats. I don't see how I could enjoy my boat without one. That is why the 310 now 330 is off the list. looking for a good 320DA
Well, I bought another 290 Sundancer and decided to just go ahead and order a deck from swimplatforms.com. Hopefully, they get it here quicker than the 4 weeks they quoted.
I built the last swim deck for this same style boat. I'm looking forward to this style and to see just how much better it fits and if it conforms to the boat better. I'm a little iffy that it is a bit narrow.
I don't understand why the pre-94 style has no supports. It's the same lower hull design. Even the 97 270 has no supports. It's basically the same thing also. Yet, the 94 and up 290 has 3 supports underneath. I'd much rather not have those supports under there.
They sent supports with my platform but said I really do not need them. I did not use them and the platform is rock solid. I do not feel they are needed.
