The 2400SCR has a integral swim platform. Are you looking to extend it? SwimPlatforms.com makes one.

Hi Mike
Yes Mike,i am having (myswimplatform.com) making it for me.It will be a 2 12 feet by, 4 feet half a circle shape.And would like it to mount flat to creat one flat platform, without a small step.The integral platform is curved and i need to know the degree of the curvature.

So they do not have the measurements.
Seems they should have this as they have the other data.

I will not be able to get to the marina for another week or two. If you still need the measurement I can try to get it then

Mo I have a few concerns on what you are planning to do. First the rub rail will need to be removed. Second this area doesn't provide a good mounting point, not much structure here. How do you plan to attach the swim platform? Third assess from the engine compartment for thru bolting is very difficult.

See the attached link, swimplatforms.com make a one level design that sits on top of he existing platform. I have seen this on a boat at my marina and it is a very nice design
