Aslan long time no talk. I hope things are well. Ive been trying to find a filler cushion since i bought my boat. Could you put your gang on a mission to find me one as well?

Hey Chris, good to see you posting again. How's your family doing? You were on our prayer list for quite awhile.

As YT mentioned, those cushions are sure hard to come by. He & Liquid were instrumental in getting those to me after visiting the 263 parts boat up in Rochester, NY owned by JRCramer1. If you need his number, send me a PM and I'll get it to ya' . I just bought the potable water tank from him too.

In the meantime, I'll keep an eye out for transom cushions. Before I came across JRCramer's set, I used to email everyone on Boat Trader asking if they wanted to sell theirs to me. Could be an option for you if desperate.

....any more pics of your supercharged beast? For some reason I thought you were selling her. Thought I saw her on Craigslist last month. Change of heart or am I just mistaken? :?:

Anyone know if a swim platform from a 272 will work on a 263? Thank you

What’s up, YT.SM…And yes Whipple I always keep an eye out for those. We had a Ukrainian parts Boat that my Rochester friend came upon by chance as you know and those are so far and few between. Keep praying my friend.

262/263 extended platforms will work on a 272 hull. They're the same hull, different liner. A newer 242 extended platform will also work if you have a good fiberglass and welder to build you custom brackets. I almost went down that path years ago.
