Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Swim ladder for 1966 Nauset 16

I have a mid-1960s 16 Whaler (blue interior, chrome railings all around, etc.) and am looking for a collapsible side-mount ladder than can just be propped over the gunwale to help a swimmer climb back into the boat.

Any suggestions for make / model / size that would fit best?

Thanks! (New to this group -- so very appreciative.)

I suggest this:

Stainless Steel Dive N Dog 44 3/4 Inch 4 Step Folding Top Mount Boat Ladder on ebay now.

(removed dead link)

I use this same ladder on my Cohasset. The clips mount on the gunnel between the front and side rails. It's very sturdy and all stainless.
