Does anyone know of a good source for a boarding ladder?

There are tons of options for these at local marine retailers and even online. All depends on exactly what you want... rungs, overall size, quality of SS, etc, etc.

thanks. I have looked online at West, Overton's but they don't look like the Grady quality. I'll keep. If you happen to know of a compan that sells high quality ones, I'd appreciate it

I've just got the stock Grady White ladder on the back of my 228 Seafarer, of which it's a top mounted 3 step ladder and I imagine is probably the same or similar to what should be on your boat? I would maybe go with something like this, that is slightly wider and has a 400 lb weight limit to it. Most fishermen/boaters tend to be a bit on the heavier/wider side, especially if they're carrying something while climbing up the ladder and into the boat.

Can you be more specific as to what you're looking for? Is this to repalce the one you already have, for example?

I did what you did, and struggled to find a ladder I liked. I took a chance ordering this one because of their international reputation and the very complete description on their website:


It's far nicer than the other options I've seen, including the Garelick. I'm very happy with it. Note that it's Italian and you'll need to use metric screws to properly mount it.
