Swim Platform ...?

Lakeprincess · 06-28-2009, 08:16 PM

Hi there. Last year we paid $1800 for a floating swim platform, made of cedar, and all seemed well. I think it's 8 by 8 feet. Anyway, it got away - the rope broke, the $150 anchor (250 pound test) is on the lake bottom and little kids are MAD. We are probably just dummies.
But...does anyone have any advice on what type of cable or rope we need to keep the darn thing reigned in, and what is the best kind of anchor if we need to replace it. Thanks guys.
