A boat utility platform has a pair of adjustable mounting clamps for hanging the platform from the gunwale of a boat. Each clamp includes an upper end which hooks over the gunwale and has an outermost tip for clamping abutment against the outside surface of the gunwale, and a lower end, the latter of which includes a rationally biased pivotally mounted jaw member for clamping abutment against the inside surface of the gunwale. The upper end of each clamp includes a hooking segment that follows the path of a substantially semi-elliptical arc, then tails to the outermost tip.
