Swim PLatform w/ Trim tabs?
 
Who's got a swim platform & trim tabs. I just ordered one, and it will be here tommorow. I figure that I will have to cut a recess into the platform for clearance. I looked through the gallery hoping to find a pic of somebody's boat with a platform & tabs, but no luck.

Worst case scenario...I'll be the guinea pig. Probably attempt the install tomorrow after work. Shouldn't be more than a 6 beer job the way I see it.

The obligatory pictures shall be taken. :beer:

What platform did you order? I need to add one and haven't decided which to get.

Ya'll post some pictures, website or something. Been thinking about that for a while!!
The one hammer made was great, thought that was the only thing possible.

I have a solid swim platform on the stbd side of my V. The hyd cyl for the trim tab cuts the left edge of the platform off (looking from rear to front) and the platfrom fits around the hyd cyl.

Hammer's platform was for diving. his is a little overkill for the rest of us....

i would guess this style would fit OVER top of your tabs:head:

Here's mine. It wouldn't seem to interfere at all with trim tabs. I got a 3-step telescoping ladder. It was too difficult with only one step.

I have the exact same platform as Pipe Dream. Looks like we will be out on the boat tonight, softball double header tomorrow, installation (swim platform) Thursday, Seacrets Friday, and Boating all weekend. Guess I can sleep when I'm dead...:beer:
