Can't decide between a "Top" or "Transom" mount swim platform! Need Help!!!
Hello Everyone,
I will be getting out first boat on Tuesday (04 Glastron GX205) and the first thing I will be adding for safety and to make it easier to exit/enter the water is a fiberglass extended swim platform.
I have looked at the different styles and I like the wedge from swim platforms super store, but I can't decide on Top or Transom mount. I like the look of the top mount, but the transom mount would be a few inches closer to the water making it easier to get on the boat and relax with the feet in the water while anchored.
Anyone have any pros and cons of each?
