Hi fellas,
Has anyone ever seen or installed a full size swim platform on a hull with a grady bracket?
I could have sworn i saw this before somewhare. Id assume it bolts to the transom slightly over the actual top of the bracket.
I know i could but two smaller platforms, but i liked the look of one solid back deck from side to side on the hull.
Any help would be appriciated.
thanks
Dan

I took one off on mine and it was mounted over the Grady bracket. Still have it with the brackets. It was a dealer option. I went with an integrated one for the new 300zuke I just mounted. Grady bracket wasn't going to provide enough support for the added weight/hp.

I have an 86 offshore 24 with a swim platform over the bracket. Here is a screen shot from my security cam but I can add more detailed pics later if you want.

I have an original Fiberglass full length platform if anyone local wants to purchase. I was thinking about using it as a bar in my back yard :)

Do you have pictures and how much are you asking? What size and model did you have? Would put this on a 24 offshore with twins

It came off my 24' Explorer. I have the brackets for it as well and possibly the ladder. I want to say it's 87" wide. I'm send you a message and I can email you some pics.
