I need to put a swim platform on a 2001 208 Adventure. Does anyone know where I can get a deal on one and is this something I can do myself or does it need to be done professionally?

The Grady platform, half deck with folding ladder is a simple option to bolt on. I don't know the cost but I suspect it is more expensive than aftermarket options.
I have a 208 with the platform and I like the ladder. You can deploy it easily from the deck or from the water if necessary, a nice feature if you happen to fall overboard.

Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but....

No matter what the cost, put that ladder on!!! It's just great to put the rod down and jump overboard to cool off. Assuming you're not swimming into a school of blues.
