palmetto1 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Whats a decent budget guess to add a platform? Seen a few used boats without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Juice Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 In Wilmington it's 1000-1200 from High Speed Welding. I'll be adding one this summer. I hope you're considering that 18 MA with the new SHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulligan Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 If you buy one without a platform you may want to fish it first. I bought a boat without one thinking I would be buying one for the boat shortly after. After fishing it a few times I really like not having one there. It gives me much more fishing space.

linesider 159 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 I sold one for a hewes for around 250 2 years ago. Under 400 used for a hewes platform should be easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Mulligan. I don't do much push polling so the platform mostly just takes up deck space on my boat. My cast net hits it all the time when throwing. But if you pole a lot that's a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
