I already got the quote on the swim platform, which came with pictures of your boat as an example of course.

I've ordered stainless steel cupholders, teak vinyl for the instrument panels, and new steering wheel.

Full on copycat coming your way!

Boat is a 496 with a Bravo 1, no captains call, no trim tabs.

Did you go tonSwimplatforms.com? How much did they quote you? What options did you have quoted?

I did. They are very fast to reply with options and pictures. Including shipping and stainless rub rail for an extra $150 I think ill be just over $2K. shipping is pretty expensive as its a big item.

Pricing:

Our Cobalt 252 BR & 253 CC Swim Platform package is $1675.00.
This includes all stainless steel mounting hardware, 3 step ladder, oval port, rubber molding and
installation guidelines.

I was E mailing Tecno Grafic about replacing them and it's just not in the cards at this time. So I will be taking them on myself for now.

***NOTE**** Tecno Grafic has the drawings for the 252, so they can make perfect copies of our panels. Only difference was the glove box insert was different from mine to their drawing

Noticed you removed the factory ladder
Do you still have it and would you want to sell and ship to Pa?
By the way swim platform and sea deck looks great
