Abstract The specification discloses a ski boat having a swim platform across which a conventional water ski can be laid so that a skier can easily put the ski on while standing on the platform. More particularly the boat includes a pair of sidewalls and a swim platform integral with and extending between the sidewalls. The swim platform extends rearwardly beyond the sidewalls to provide a portion across which the ski can lie.
