I have one on my 99 Ski Nautique. I purchased it from Teakword, I had to give them a template to make it from. I can post a pic for you if you like.

Do a search on www.wakeworld.com and find the link. Someone made one out of Corian. There was also an article on how to make them.

I've got Gator Grip across my transom and you'd have to look twice to even notice that it wasn't from the factory.
Been meaning to add some pics to the web page.

Chris,
Do you have gator grip in white? I'm nervous someone's going to ding my transom and then I'll have to kill them.
BTW, I dig the sub box you posted on WW. How does it sound? Would that be enough If the was the only sub in the boat?

TLB: I don't have straight white. I think white would show too much dirt but, I do understand where you're coming from.
I have black Gator Grip across my transom and it totally matches the rub rail and the black hardware around the swim deck.

As for the sub, I made it a sealed box and I'm totally happy with the sound of the complete system now. The subs hit really hard when pushed. I've got three amps installed, 300 to each sub and 300 to the rear 4 speakers and the fronts run off the deck. Sounds pretty good.

Here is my Transom saver made out of Corian. A buddy of mine used to be in the countertop business and hooked a brother up.

One of my concerns with getting the fiberglass platform was that there really is no way to attach a transom saver. However, I haven't had any problems with it, everyone who rides with me is extremely careful. If someone is new to boarding I just ask them to sit on the step before getting off the boat.

The thing that concerns me the most about my transom is Wakesurfing. I’ve had a surfboard hit the transom way more than any wakeboard ever has. This seems especially bad when someone is first learning how.

Here’s the link to the picks of the corian on Wakeworld.
