Look on Ebay. There seems to be both teak and fiberglass ones one there from time to time.
Your boat is not all that old, I bet your can be fixed if it is not too bad.

keep a eye on eBay. They show up there ever now and then. That is were I got mine for $175 and it was very good condition, almost new.
There are two on there now, but they are not a MasterCraft.

The ones I've seen on ebay were custom platforms, i.e., after the auction, you send them your transom measurements, they make you a platform. They looked very nice. They did not come with the supports.

Jeremy, where are you from? I am on lake Springfield quite a bit (weather permitting). Not too many engineering types with Mastercrafts in central Illinois.

What kind of search on e-bay. I did a couple searches, but was unable to come up with anything?

I haven't seen them in a while. But it would be "Mastercraft" or "Master Craft." If you do a search for teak on this board, you'll probably find an older discussion in which I posted the link to the ebay sale for one of these. From there, you may be able to find an email or telephone number for the person that was selling/making these platforms.

Okay, here's one on ebay. I searched "teak" in ebay motors. They have lots of sizes available.

Just in case this comes up in the future, this is the contact info from the auction page.

A quick GIS turned up this company as well. I have no experience with them, but thought it would help.
