So I called a couple marinas regarding pricing for the four winns swim platform for our 2006 h190. I received a quote for 2500 installed from one and 1500 plus 500 install from the other. I did search and found nothing about ease of installation or if these are good prices. Can anyone validate this, or is there another online dealer to visit? Thanks in advance!

I put the FW factory platform on my sundowner. I paid rough;y $1500 for it and installed it myself. Install isn't too difficult you just need a little patience.

Prices you were quoted sound fine. The FW platform looks better IMO. You can try http://www.swimplatforms.com/ and see how they compare to OEM.

For my H180, I was quoted $3500AU plus $500 for fitting. This was for an OEM swim platform from the local Forwinns dealer. He said a majority of the cost was importing it from the States. No doubt it would be cheaper to make one up from scratch here in Aust. Sorta puts your $1500 into prospective doesn't it.

When I was thinking about adding one on my H200, I seem to recall being quoted $15-1600 from swimplatforms.com.

I think I was around $1800 installed. From swimplatforms.com, which swimplatforms picked up most of my install costs being mine was the first installed on the new 200 hull design and the installer made a templet for them and gave input.
