disregard my pm. thanks, but this wouldn't work for my rig.

thanks richard. i'm 6' 240 and not the most limber fellow.. so i hear what you're saying. i may go with the garelick (for an i/o) with the 3 steps that stow under the platform.

thanks

heh.. yeah i suppose so. let's just say the age range varies a bit.. between 6 and 50

looking to add a swim platform this year. seems like everybody and their brother makes one.. are there any brands to recommend or stay away from? i was looking at the garelick ez-in. and what about the number of steps? is 2 enough or should i go with 3? i appreciate any input. thanks guys.

Had to replace the sending unit in my main tank. Unfortunately, Crestliner didn't install any access panels from the factory so as you can see, I had to do some disassembly.. Needless to say, I will be installing some access panels in the floor before I put things back together. Installing the new sending unit was simple enough, just getting to it was the hard part. Anyway, for anyone who has an Eagle and needs to swap a sending unit, here's where they are. I also trimmed about 3" off of the vent hoses to hopefully alleviate the painfully slow fueling process which always results in fuel spewing out of the vents if I pump the gas in too fast. We'll see how the next fill up goes. How she sits right now, waiting for the access panels to arrive.

got ya, thanks

thanks for the input guys. i think i'm gonna wait until i unwrap it in the spring, take some measurements and see what will work.

you bring up a good point.. i may not be able to fit 2 of them side by side either...

does anyone have these in their boat? i'm looking to upgrade my 19 year old stock crestliner seats. i want to go to a captain's or a helm type seat with some arm rests. i'm looking at the tempress elite and the tempress probax elite (both with arm rests). the probax are a bit more expensive, don't know if they're worth the extra cost or not. i'll also be adding some hydro adjustable pedestals too (could also use some recommendations there too, there's so many to choose from). but, any input on those 2 seat models would be great. thanks guys.. tempress elite high back tempress probax elite high back

i worry more about people falling out, not so much about waves come in. my daughter fell out of my old boat some years back. wasn't leaning against the side, but a wake rolled through causing her to lose her balance and stumble a bit. in doing so, it moved her up against the port side, then the 2nd wake/wave rolled the boat and over she went. that was a tracker pro guide v-16 sc. gunnels were knee high on me. also knew of a local guy who went overboard while leaning over the side hooking up a downrigger. same scenario.. wave came by, swimmin.
