Question? Where Can I Find a Fiberglass Swim Step/Platform

queonda · Oct-16-2009, 09:09 AM

I am looking for an after market swim step/platform for my boat.

Needs to be approx. 90" wide, white, fiberglass and straight against transom.

Any ideas? I have looked at the usual suspects: ebay, craig, etc.

Try Minnies surplus in Newport beach.

Did you call ProKat? There's also custom fiberglass shops like Crystaliner in Newport / CM that would make it, or other boat manufacturers. And there's usually some on ebay. Last, keep your eyes on Craigslist in the boats section and you might find one cheap.

I built on out of 2x2 pine I glued and screwed together, then ran it through a planer to about 1.25" thick, cut some cool slots in it and beveled the edges, and then glassed it all around and bolted it to the ss frames I had laying around. It worked great, cost me less that $100, and it's lasted over 6 years and going. Just something to consider if cash is tight, worked for me!

ProKat (aka prosports) went belly up.

The best source that I have found for swim platforms is the guys in Arizona, www.swimplatforms.com.

I have put several of these on ProKats.
