Switlik 10 man platform

[In Memory Walter K]

I just got a call from my raft servicing company advising me that some seams on my Switlik 10 man rescue platform are not in good shape and the time has come for the raft to be replaced. I have the hard cased version with a ss cradle. A new one now costs $3500+ and I looked at Ebay to see if I could find one and save my cradle and/or the fiberglass work that will be needed should I get a different raft and cradle. So far, no luck. My far offshore days are over and I like the larger capacity rescue platform for my inshore needs. Anyone have any good sources? Walter
