The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Not sure if this is bad forum etiquette, but I think I posted my question in the wrong forum.
If anyone here has some advice for modifying and attaching a fiberglass swim platform, please see this post:

Hi iBoats, been a while (almost a year to be exact). I'd like to tap the collective wisdom of this board for my next project.
I acquired a very nice fiberglass swim platform including undermount stainless 3 step ladder last year for about $300. This platform was custom made for a Sea Ray...
I was looking for a good spot to install cup holders in the bow of my 18' Rinker 180 and saw something similar to this in a friends pontoon. I think I'd prefer not drilling a 4" hole into the fiberglass to install cupholders up there.
Anyone know of a good place to get something like this? I...
I just saw this on Craigslist.

Looks to be a nice old boat and a trailer with potential, and the price is right. Libertyville is about 40 minutes north of Chicago.

I have a post over in the General area and wondered if any of you boat restorers / builders have ever used Seaboard or Starboard to build an extended swim platform or anything else?

Thanks a lot for any information or experience.

Using "Seaboard" or "Sea Board" to build an Extended Swim Platform ??
I saw on another board a member that described a material for building and Extended Swim Platform using "seaboard". I have never heard or seen this before and it looks really nice.
I am pretty handy with tools and...
Hello iBoats,
I am looking for suggestions for a used tow vehicle that will also fit my family:
Me, wife, 3 kids (ages 6, 3, 1). We will be towing a 18' boat that weighs approx. 1900 pounds.
Vans would be first choice, I appreciate any and all shared experience and suggestions.

I am pretty sure I have an Alpha One Generation 2 outdrive on my 1995 Mercruiser 3.0L 135 HP Rinker 180.
I got the boat with the 14x19 Mercury (part #48-78120) prop on it.
I purchased (at a garage sale, thanks to my wife for $20) a reconditioned Michigan Wheel prop 14 1/4 x 17 (part #...
I have recently become very interested in the Hurricane SunDeck 187 OB. Wondering if any iBoaters have any experience with Hurricane boats or Hurricane Dealers.<br /><br />1. Are there any members who own this boat model?<br />2. Any members who own similar (SunDeck series) boat?<br />3. Any...
Had a great time on the lake this weekend in WI. <br /><br />Had the family out tubing and hanging out in the lake. Can't beat hanging out at the lake with nothing to do but enjoy the company of your family and the beauty of the sky/lake/trees/etc.<br /><br />Hope all here had a great 4th as...
Well I took my turn on this one this past Friday.<br /><br />Took the day off (Summer Fever sick day) and took the family to the lake for the day.<br /><br />Prepped the boat in the parking lot doing all the usual stuff and somehow forgot the drain plug that I keep hung from the steering...

Hi All. I have been looking through the archives and found some very informative posts that have helped my understanding a lot. I am still confused about a couple things.<br /><br />I have a 1974 15' Sea Sprite bow rider. I am installing a cd player/radio and a 12V accessory plug. I am...
