Work Platform

[jmk]

I'm wondering if anyone knows a builder who'd make a work platform for an oyster farm in Maine. It would have to move down a longline and haul oyster float cages out of the water.

I'd like something similar to the attached picture- maybe with the floats oriented differently. I'm not married to any particular material. Could anyone build me one of these? What would it cost?

Any ideas on a boat modification that could do this without an additional platform?

How about a craigslist pontoon boat, a little framing and a davit you could probably get it done on the cheap.

I build aluminum boats for oyster farms on the cape. I could build this no problem. Guessing around $16,000.00 also guessing the size of the boat and using the best grade of aluminum for the job.
