SWIM PLATFORM
The swim platform has a maximum rated weight capacity of 1000
lbs. Exceeding this limit may result in serious property damage
and personal injury. Your warranty most likely will not cover
damages ensuing from a failure to follow our recommendations.
Models
All models. Materials vary. Most models also oer optional styles.
Purpose
Swim platforms provide easy access between the interior of
the boat and the body of water. Care should always be taken
by persons moving between the boat and the water. While the
platforms have been designed to be slip-resistant, they may still
become slick, and footing can become dicult. All movement
should be done with that in mind. Failure to exercise caution can
lead to injury. Also, boisterous play is inappropriate on the swim
platform because injury can occur.
Never allow boisterous behavior on the swim platform. A fall from
the swim platform could result in contact with transom-mounted
metal edges, which could cause minor to moderate injury.
PROPELLERS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Shut off the engine(s) when near persons in the water prior to
using sun pads, swim platforms or boarding ladders.
Location
Swim platforms are attached to the boat transom.
Operation
Platforms may be permanently attached to the transom. However,
some platforms feature a bracket that allows them to fold down,
reducing the amount of room required for storage. To determine
whether the boat is so equipped, look beneath the platform and
see if there is a bracket with a pin. If so, the swim platform can be
folded. To do so properly, follow these instructions:
NOTE: Platforms themselves are fairly heavy, and releasing the
bracket may result in the platform falling down, and thereby
striking the transom with excessive force. Please provide some
