Sorry, I am still clueless as to how to post pics. It is a 72" full transom platform. The thing I like about it is that the center portion is hinged, and can be lifted so that the outdrive clears it when trailering.

No pics yet, but the teak swim platform did arrive. It was in 3 pieces when it arrived. 2 pieces mount on either side of the outdrive, and the third piece bridges the gap between those 2 over the outdrive. I cannot believe the deal I got on this. This is very high quality thick teak--probably 2" thick or better. It is all in good shape--just needs to be cleaned thoroughly, then teak brightener applied to get it all nice and pale.

I have used Sikkens Cetol on my teak in the past with good results. It does, however, have that slightly orange cast to it that I do not find to be the best look. I am curious as to what others may have used on their teak work--both to clean/brighten and finish. I am not opposed to using teak oil even though you have to keep oiling it often to keep it looking good. I can get a couple seasons out of the Cetol treatment without doing anything to it, and then just lightly sand the whole surface and any nicks/scratches, put on a couple more coats and I am good to go.
