Thanks BigBo Yes I had to make wedges. This bracket was made for a 23 seacraft and they are pretty straight across. The wedges are 1 3/4 wide and tapered to noting at 20 inches. The center or square as I call it of the bracket is flat against the boat. This is good because this is were the stress point is. The platform is bolted also.
We will love the platform!! Much better to climb back in from a swim on that then a rope ladder.
You can see a few other pic on my web site. I have a 1/2 inch steel bracket on the inside to hold everything toghter. I did this hole job myself including all the glass work. I had a buddy weld the bracket on the inside for me. I have my fingers crossed that all will be well.
