Pics anybody? I'm in...but I'd like to see what I'm buying first. The ladder on my X was ok 10 years ago when I bought the boat, but I'm a little older and wiser now. The idea of treads is great also.

I'll try to post pictures next week , when it comes in . Its suppose to be exactly like the stock ladder but one rung longer.

Sorry about the address , didn't think about "Bots" harvesting it . I don't think there is a need to post it again . Hopefully everybody got it .

Love The New Ladder !!!!!!!

The ladder came in last week , it bolted right up to the exisiting brackets .

As promised , it is exactly the same as the original except one rung longer .

An unexpected benifit of the new one is , as we discussed in this thread , the difficulty in pulling yourself up ( nothing to grab between rudder and motor ) has been greatly reduced .

You step on the bottom rung , grab the top of the ladder and pull up to a standing position , climb on out . Much easier .

As soon as we figure out how to download wifes new camera to the computer , I'll try to post pictures. :macx:
