1990 Ski Nautique Swim platform

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   There is still enough time till the season will start so i started restoring my platform this week. I think the previous owner painted the platform while the teak was still a bit wet. That's why some of the teak turned black, but after a lot of sanding and drying inside the teak is turning back to his brown/grey colour. I still need to do some sanding at the bottom side and then some teak cleaner stuff and finaly get it back in teak oil.

I think it will turn out pretty good!

Here are pictures of the progress:

	Hi Bart, If you want some more info, just give me a call: +32476259477 Or you can also send me an e-mail: kristof.erens@skynet.be I ordered lots of parts and goodies from the States, still cheaper than buying boat parts over here...

	Yeah, no need to have the shorts rip up on a jagged edge of your platform.. If you can't fix it, sure buy new, no problem... Find out from the site what the gross weight of the deck plus the packing to ship would be. We can have Kristof help with the import estimate.. Moj'

	Some chunks are missing a the corners of the platform and they used some kind of putty? to fill it up. Maybe i just get some pieces of teak en try to fix it myself. the top deck is still in pretty good condition. I'm working in the private mega yacht business, and asked the guys overthere to copy my platform but it will cost me €600 ($800). So thats why i looked at the platform in the CCF store.

	Nice boat, welcome to the site !!! yes Kristof is from Belgium. He's brought over countless parts.... Like Tim states,and even in my own experience, you could probably bring that deck back to life if it's just paint in the way.... I stripped stain and years of polyurethane off of mine and it came out great... Anyway, best of luck. Always help on here. Just ask away.. Moj'

	What kind of damage? Unless chunks are missing, teak is easy to restore. The solid platforms on the Ski Nautiques were the same from 1991-1996.

	I noticed the same with the grab bar and the decals, i know that they replaced the decals when the previous owner bought this boat. The hull id and the colours are definitely from a '90 ski nautique. But i actually like this platform. @ Moj I looked in all the brochures and your right, the '94 also looks allmost the same. But then i'm not sure about the dimensions. I need a new one because the last owner painted this one, and its in pretty bad conditions. Both damaged and weathered. I will wait for Kristof, he is from belgium right? I have been reading on this forum since i bought this boat last year. Thanks guys!

	My platform from the 96' was closed the exact same way... Bart, before you import a platform, perhaps you can tell us why you need another one?? Was yours damaged, just weathered, ???? Kristof here can tell you what to expect to pay in KG, duties and import fees.. if you want a perfect fit and made correctly to work with your removable brackets, you should buy one from the site... Either that or you have to make one.. Moj'

	That quote in the lower-righthand page of that brochure is so hilariously pretentious. Love it.

	I have never seen a '90 with a solid platform before. The grab bar and decals also look to be from the 1991-1992 era. Your 2-piece of observer seat bottom is an early production 1990 though... strange! All of the 1990 platforms I have seen have slats with black plexiglass below. I removed the plexi on my mine and I think it looks much better.
