Abstract: An aft-mounted dive platform system includes at least one hull portion rigidly affixed to a hull of a boat. A dive platform is coupled to the at least one hull portion and is positioned, at least partially, behind at least one propeller drive system affixed to the stern of the boat. The at least one hull portion includes a first hull portion and a second hull portion. The first hull portion includes: a first inner portion surface positioned proximate a first side of the at least one propeller drive system and a first outer portion surface positioned proximate a first outer surface of the hull of the boat; wherein the first outer portion surface of the first hull portion is recessed with respect to the first outer surface of the hull of the boat.

Abstract: An aft-mounted dive platform system includes at least one hull portion rigidly affixed to a hull of a boat. A dive platform is slidably attached to the at least one hull portion and is positioned, at least partially, behind at least one propeller drive system affixed to the stern of the boat. An actuation system is configured to effectuate essentially vertical displacement of the dive platform with respect to the at least one hull portion. An interface system is configured to couple the actuation system with a rotation system for the at least one propeller drive system.

A dive platform is coupled to the at least one hull portion and is positioned, at least partially, behind at least one propeller drive system affixed to the stern of the boat. The dive platform includes at least one clearance panel configured to be displaced in the event that the at least one propeller drive system rotates upward due to running aground.

A dive platform is coupled to the at least one hull portion and is positioned, at least partially, behind at least one propeller drive system affixed to the stern of the boat. The dive platform includes at least one clearance panel configured to allow access to the at least one propeller drive system in the event that the at least one propeller drive system needs to be serviced.

Abstract: An aft-mounted dive platform system includes at least one hull portion rigidly affixed to a hull of a boat. A dive platform is slidably attached to the at least one hull portion and is positioned, at least partially, behind at least one propeller drive system affixed to the stern of the boat, thus allowing for essentially vertical displacement of the dive platform with respect to the at least one hull portion.
