Hi, I am planning to replace the all metal swim platform on my boat with composites ones to save weight.
The current solution is as below from a project point of view, I am asking if it does make sense to build the "C" shaped support in fiberglass (as the rest of the swim platform) glued to the plane VS building it in SS and bolting it to the plane.
The tube connecting the transom and the swim platform is just for adding strength and load balancing and it is not intended to move or shake (even if some vibration can be forecasted).
Thanks
