Steve. Does the platform stay out of the wake while getting on plane ? Do you have to go through extra steps to keep it out of the wake?
Your britework is awesome. Mine has none of that. We are going to fab our own rear jumpseats after I buy the dies for that smaller tubing. 1" SS tube for the seat frames. Could you would you get me pics of your tumblr seats ? For my patterns. Do you know what size tubing it is ? 1" ?
I'm also going to eventually bend me up a custom platform with 2" SS DOM and then suspend the wood(Purple Heart) inside the frame.

PS. Your boat makes me embarrassed of mine.

Brian, the platform does not interfere with the wake in any way. Just dump the throttle and hang on, no extra steps.
By bright work are you referring to the tubing that makes up the rear seat back frame? I'd be happy to snap pics and give you dimensions. Pretty sure the tubing is 1" dia but I will measure this weekend. Your boat has a generator, an inverter and ac, doesn't sound too shabby to me!

It's getting better. It's nearly 20 yrs old but I shouldn't complain because it doesn't look it. From the pics I've seen of yours, yours looks new !
The gen/inverter set up is kicking my butt. I monkeyed around with it last night and still can"t get the AGS to keep cranking till it starts !!!!!!
It's been so fricking hot that I can't stay on a train of thought long enough to get anything done. Also, my OCD kicks in and I get side tracked. I actually took all the hose clamps off and turned them so they faced the center of the engine ! AND, I replaced a bunch, $55 worth, because they didn't match. Sad state of affairs.
I've got everything out of the boat right now trying to get the pick up tube out of the tank. I broke the dangum roll over valve in the 90 coming out of the tank last night so now I must take the black water tank out to get a clean shot at it BUT the tank is full because someone stole the adapter at the dookie pump at the lake last Sunday.
And you thought YOU had issues.................





LOL

To be fair, the picture of mine was taken in May when she was first launched. It hasn't been that clean since. What brand AGS and model number do you have. I'll take a look.
