Hello: I have a Sea Chaser 175 that I am setting up for diving. I have most of the work done but need some help on deciding how to get back in the boat. A swim ladder would probably be best bet, but my transom is very small. Does anyone know of a platform that would fit my boat or have any other suggestions? Thanks

Mike
 
I'm not familiar with your brand of boat. If you're looking for a swim platform try: http://www.swimplatforms.com/

You can also direct mount a bracket to your transom for a dive ladder. You would want to reinforce it good though. I have a 1/4 swim platform on my boat. I mounted a bracket to accept a 3-step SS X-mas tree dive ladder.

Here's what I made for my boat. Aluminum ladder w/ steel mounting bracket which attatches to my down-rigger mount. With this I can exit the water wearing my twin steel tanks, full gear incl. argon tank, and fins. I weigh about 160 lbs.
