    So I found cobalt hinges for the swim platform on great lakes skipper. 1150 dollars for the set i think my swim platform is fine the way it is.

    And here I thought the wake plate, surf tabs and the surf pipe were built in steps……..

    Have Hommerding install you some custom Gator on your platform. It shouldn't be very expensive.

    The swim platform is like 450 or so from Gator step. Since I have lost my storage and am trying to figure out what to do with my boat, the platform is gonna have to wait. My garage build has been dealt a major blow by Farragut and my storage next door has been sold. Once I can get it back inside its high on the list of priorities.

    I bet someone slightly crafty could make a set of those hinges for a lot less than 1150.

    The real trick would be modifying the platform so that the step fits nicely when folded up.

    I think making the platform 2 piece and have the small section pull out and drop down from under the large platform. The problem being it would hit the surf pipe. This is where the fancy hinges come into play.

    Agree, but I'm not going to fire up the boat and tell that person to wait 6-8 mins to fill up enough
