Jim, thanks for your kind word on the article. We do have the optional swim platform, but that is not what I would want with scuba gear. We continue to learn more about our plastic boat each time we use her and we continue to find more reasons why this is the best boat for us. We have had zero problems with the boat. We use her, then she gets a pressure washer bath, we run lots off fresh water thru the bilge pump, use a wet vac to suck up as much water in the boat as possible, wipe off the metal, put her back in the garage, and hook up the charger for the batteries. We grease the trailer and she is ready for the next trip. The only way it could be any easier was if we hired someone to do the work, and then we would worry if they did it right. Enjoy your new boat, we sure enjoy ours.
