Does anybody know where you can buy a new swim platform. I got a Malibu and have a teak platform. This platform is in good shape but I think I will need to buy a new one. Im thinking of replacing it with a fiberglass or just a teak platform? Anybody know where I can buy them?

Whats wrong with the teak? You could just fix the bad wood. Then clean and oil the hole platform.

There is nothing wrong with the teak. Just the boat is a 94 and my family uses this boat alot. Boat is in awesome condition. My whole family skis and goes wakeboarding. With people going in and out of the boat it makes the platform more weaker. Im just looking for new platforms because this teak may have had enough.

I would look for any cracks or warping and if none are present, clean and oil the platform, it will be good as new and save you some dough. Dad owns a 92 Prostar and the platform is dang near perfect.

This thread is worthless without pics! Lets see the platform in question. I highly doubt it needs to be replaced.
