Poling Platform
Fabrication

Custom aluminum poling platforms for flats boats and skiffs. Built for South Florida flats fishing — lightweight, rigid, and fabricated in Fort Lauderdale from 6061-T6 marine aluminum. T-bar and hydraulic lift options available.

What We Build

A poling platform is where you spend hours watching for fish — it needs to be solid, the right height, and built for the specific boat. We don't adapt catalog platforms. We take your hull dimensions and build a platform with the exact footprint, height, and tilt geometry your boat needs for the flats.

  • Aluminum platforms — 6061-T6 aluminum welded frame and deck, engineered for stiffness without unnecessary weight
  • T-bar and hydraulic lift options — fixed T-bar mounts or hydraulic tilt/fold systems for trailering and tight spaces
  • Custom height and footprint — designed to your hull's transom and freeboard so height and visibility are correct
  • Powder coat or anodize — powder coat in any color or clear anodize for a natural aluminum finish that resists salt corrosion
  • Marine-grade 6061-T6 aluminum — the correct alloy for structural outdoor applications in a saltwater environment
  • Built for South Florida flats fishing — we've built platforms for redfish, tarpon, and permit fishermen throughout Biscayne, the Keys, and the Everglades backcountry

Why DolFab for Poling Platforms

Boat-Specific Build
We measure your hull. Every platform leg angle, height, and mounting point is specific to your boat — not a generic fit.
ABS-Certified Welding
Platform structures carry full body weight over the water. Our ABS-certified welders make sure every joint is built to handle it.
45+ Years in South Florida
We've been building fishing boat hardware since 1978. We know what the backcountry salt air does to inferior work.
Fort Lauderdale Shop
Bring your skiff or flats boat to 6800 NW 15th Way. We measure, build, and fit in one location.
