    Default swim platform fell off

    Anyone ever have the fiberglass swim platform just disappear one day. Well I did, it left one angle bracket behind and 2 screwed up transom brackets. Anyone know a good place to find a replacement.

    It was off a 2000 Santera.

    Update: found the platform in the lake last season. My issue now is trying to remove the transom brackets since the lower bolts are under the floor line on that area.

    Yeah, you may have to cut the floor to get to them. Not the best design.

    How did you find the platform? Sounds like that could be an interesting story.

    I don't know about your floor specifically, but there's a good chance you'll have to cut it out in some way to get access. It sounds scarier than it is, and isn't a difficult repair to fiberglass back.
