New Dive Platform
 

Well guys, a local guy called me yesturday, he owns this V in town and does welding. He built this platform for his boat and knew I wouldnt mind having the same thing. He just got certified in diving and looks like we might be doing some swapping for dive gear for some alum. He's coming over Monday to measure it all up.
He will make the frame and I'll install it along with adding starboard as the platform. Gonna be 30 or 36" wide. Pleanty of room to board with keeping your dive gear on. Hope it have her done before the get together in June. ;)

Re: New Dive Platform
 

I just hope he shows up on Monday. I nagged him all last summer for one. But again, he called me this time. So hopefully we can do a deal. ;D

Re: New Dive Platform
 

Tell him "The Gods" are watching, and he better do right ;D

Re: New Dive Platform

Re: New Dive Platform
 

WOW, that dude's platform looks GREAT!!...he does nice work, but it looks like the motor would HAVE to be tuned to straight position B4 tilting up...just me, but I'd avoid paintin' myself into that corner and leave center open enough for motor to go up while turned...it's gonna happen sooner or later :o ...



JMHO ;) ...

Re: New Dive Platform
 

That will look great on your V Hammer. I agree with Reel on being able to tilt the motor in any position. A full swim platform is on my want to do list.

Re: New Dive Platform
 

2ndchance, you have the bracket already. You just need to mount the starboard overtop the bracket and add supports on either side.
This guy...well kid better show up on MOnday. He does great work, but worried about being dependable.
He's a bit more relaxed now towards the police. A few months ago, some drug dealers from Wilm. came down with shotguns to blast away a guy who ripped them off. The drug dealers went to the wrong house and were at his house by accident. So when 5-O rolled up "us" we took them al down. He know loves teh police. *;D *

Re: New Dive Platform
 

Drug Dealers at the wrong house ::) ... now that'd be my luck :-/ ...

Re: New Dive Platform
 

LOL, that guy was crapping a brick when he seen guys walking up to his front door armed with shotguns. he was yelling to 911 to get us there quick. ;D

Re: New Dive Platform
 

I hope he lived next door to Dunkin Donuts and it was hammers night off! ;)

Re: New Dive Platform

I reread REELS thoughts about how the motor must be straight all the time. Hmmm, that could be a down fall :-/
Gonna find some cardboard today and see if I can make a template. I will let ya know if he shows today. ;)

Re: New Dive Platform
 

Them things look to feet wide!! what are they yours?? Nope not saved yet!!

Re: New Dive Platform
 

That boat in the swim platform pic.....What's in the bow of it? Looks like it's sitting a little askew.

Re: New Dive Platform
 

All kidding aside, I wouldn't expect it to sit that way with a 200 on the back, and that platform is barely out of the water. Take your own measurements when you mount that thing hammer.

Re: New Dive Platform
 

BTW....nice panties.

Re: New Dive Platform
 

The pic. was taken during a storm during high tide. The bow was tide down to tight, pulling the bow down.

Re: New Dive Platform

Re: New Dive Platform
 

Well, a strange thing happened today, the guy who I always gotta nag and track down to build this platform for me. actuallt tracked me down this morning wanting to work on my V. But I was stuck on daywork, so we are still shoot ing for Wednesday morning to fabricate the platform. I then found out how he was stopped and cited the other day. Well, I called in a favor, and now my cost of the alum. work, welding, ect, is now costing me zippo, zero, nota, nothing, FREEBEE. Cant wait till Wednesday. ;D
