Re: Swim Platform
No idea, I would assume that the original ones were Albin molds, but on my long-term to do list is to rebuild ours because the core is totally rotten. I'd like to find a replacement teak one that would replace it, but I'm not sure how easy it is to find one that will fit the curvature of the transom.

Re: Swim Platform
Mine isn’t cored. 2000 vintage. I only
Know this since my last marina managed to “drop” the boat on the dry stack truck a few years back. So far as I know the platform was solid glass as it was one of my customers who repaired it.

Re: Swim Platform
Sounds. Better...
I thought my swim platform was too thin to be cored but being open-minded I said, what the hell, it Is possible.

Re: Swim Platform
Mine is a '94 and that is what the surveyor said... Maybe next time when I haul out and re-bed the swim platform supports I'll re-do it, and this time with some slats or holes in it to reduce the amount of pounding when adrift.

Re: Swim Platform
I had one made by plasteak. They should have the pattern and specs for mine (just ask about one for a albin 28). Price was very reasonable and it has the looks of an old school teak swim platform but none of the maintenance!
